  • A bottle of Château Pichon-Longueville Baron 2004 Cru Classé, Pauillac - Majestic Wine

    Château Pichon-Longueville Baron 2004 Cru Classé, Pauillac

    The Cabernet content here, some 65%, asserts itself well though conversely there is a lush, openness on the mid-palate. This looks to have all the right components and balance to knit very well in time, and will be a fine wine in the vintage.

    "I have found that most of the 2004's I have tried, have been claret drinkers delights. This is no exception! Once you get past the wonderful deep purple colour of the wine, you are entranced by the beguiling nose of blackcurrants, licorice, eucalyptus, bitter chocolate and truffles. This monstrous wine is unbelievably soft and delicate in the mouth and offers real drinking pleasure. Drink it now, or stash it in the cellar for another 5 – 10 years."

  • A bottle of Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2006 Jean Grivot - Majestic Wine

    Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2006 Jean Grivot

    One of the stars of the vintage, displaying opulence with an understated complexity. Seamless balance, with supple fruit softening and rounding the edges of the structure.

    "An elegant and youthful nose of sweet cherries, raspberries, licorice, marzipan and with a wonderful medicinal quality. There is obvious sweetness and youthfulness in the mouth, with cherries, raspberries and bitter cocoa dominating the otherwise very traditional gamey and earthy palate. The tannins are firm and tight and provide wonderful structure to an otherwise young but stunning wine. It definitely needs time and will benefit from another 4 - 5 years in the cellar."

    "Regarded as one of the finest sites in Puligny Montrachet, 'Les Pucelles' neighbours the Grand Crus of Batard and Bienvenues. Similar in style to its big brothers, the 2007 'Les Pucelles' from Jomain is superb. A powerful nose of citrus peel, buttered toast, toasted hazelnuts and lemon curd. Gob-smackingly gorgeous, it is rich and powerful but maintains a wonderful elegance due to the fantastic mineral / citrus backbone. Sensational!!"

    "A beguiling bouquet of pineapple, elderflower, blossom, lemons, bees wax, pears, minerals and a delicate hint of honey. Unbelievably fresh, both on the nose and in the mouth, the wine is rich and full bodied. Intesnse flavours of grilled lemons, lemongrass, pineapple and pear adorn the palate, with a fantastic smoky / flintiness emerging in the deliciously tart finish. Sensational! "

  • A bottle of Château Calon-Ségur 2003 Cru Classé, St-Estèphe - Majestic Wine

    Château Calon-Ségur 2003 Cru Classé, St-Estèphe

    A big-framed wine and substantial with a solid structure. Smooth ripe fruit. Well balanced and broad shouldered, this is an excellent St-Estèphe from this rejuvenated estate.

    "Calon Segur has been one of my favourite wines for some time, and the 2003 is no exception. A more classically styled St-Estephe that offers up a rich nose of cassis, mulberries, and sweet summer fruits intermingled with delicious eucalyptus, peppery spice and subtle touches of oak. The palate is extraordinarily rich and round, and possesses great power and length. It’s easy to see why Robert Parker compares the 2003 to the almighty 1982!"

  • A bottle of Château Gruaud-Larose 2005 Cru Classé, St-Julien - Majestic Wine

    Château Gruaud-Larose 2005 Cru Classé, St-Julien

    Super harmony and style here, a Gruaud with intensity of flavour, purity and all-important freshness. If the property maintains its reasonable pricing policy of recent years, Gruaud will be an excellent buy.

    "Hailing from the great 2005 vintage, this is an exceptional wine that offers great value for money. Very dark and sexy in the glass, the wine offers up a wonderful bouquet of ripe black fruits, peppermint, eucalyptus and some herbaceous notes. In the mouth, it is medium bodied with good weight and intensity, and the luscious black fruits provide good length to what can only be described as a sleek and sexy wine! Drink it over the next 10 years."

    "A marvellous bouquet of peaches, cinnamon poached pears, white flowers, minerals, and a delicate whiff of gun smoke. Texturally beautiful, flavours of peaches and pears adorn the palate and marry wonderfully with the lovely minerality that provides such an extraordinary finish."

  • A bottle of Château Langoa-Barton 2001 St Julien, 3ème Cru Classé - Majestic Wine

    Château Langoa-Barton 2001 St Julien, 3ème Cru Classé

    A full-bodied wine, this is classic St-Julién - rich, complex and densely-fruity, with a complex finish. Although beginning to open now, this could equally be cellared for many years.

    "This is a Claret drinker's delight. A decadent nose of tobacco, currants, pencil shavings and a whiff of exotic spice. It is elegant and savoury in the mouth with soft chewy tannins and a deliciously long finish. Drinking wonderfully now, but could be kept for another 5 or so years."

    "Fashioned from the Viognier grape variety in the northern Rhone, the wine boasts a delightful bouquet of pears, dried apricots, pineapple, flowers and a hint of marzipan. Thick and juicy in the mouth, flavours of dried apricots, pears and fennel head up an otherwise exotically spiced palate. Luscious and long, and with a very subtle level of acidity, this has real Rhone charm!"

  • A bottle of Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 2007 Blain-Gagnard - Majestic Wine

    Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 2007 Blain-Gagnard

    While not as long-lived or as prestigious as Puligny, these wines are often better value and are more approachable when young. A fine example from a very good, small grower.
