Christmas Red Wine

A Cru Bourgeois Haut-Médoc estate of supreme pedigree, having formerly been under the ownership and direction of Château Lafite Rothschild.

Our best-selling Bordeaux from the acclaimed Château Giscours winemaking team.

A silky merlot blend from the Côtes de Castillon to deliciously demonstrate just how good - and ageworthy - the wines of Bordeaux's more affordable regions have become.

"A so-called Petit Château of the Haut-Médoc that wasn’t quite grand enough to be classified in 1855... it’s a smile-inducing bargain."

Magical claret from one of the two greatest vintages since 1945 and 1961 and now quite rare to find on market.

A beautifully developed, traditional Rioja which after 18 years' cellaring is rendered round, silky, complex and classy - full of fruit, full of life.

Made from Portugal’s top red grape varietal, Touriga Nacional, and aged for six months in oak barrels for an exquisite richness in aroma, body and texture.

Made from 40 year old vines and aged in French oak barrels. Priorat with just Rioja has the highest designation for a wine appellation in Spain.

A delicious red Rhône and a long a favourite of the Guide Hachette des Vins, Hugh Johnson, Robert Parker and ours. Grenache, syrah and just a touch of mourvedre.

Vibrant and flavourful with soft, silky tannin - a little plumper darker and rounder perhaps than its neighbour Chianti, and a fine expression of sangiovese.

Our favourite 'mini Super Tuscan', beautifully mature and ready to enjoy.

Chàteau Hyot is a 'house' claret with a style, character and sheer drinkability we very rarely find at this level. Hails from the excellent 2020 vintage.

Full of rich, vibrant fruit, and is of such quality that one might easily mistake the cuvée for a good Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

A lively, cherry and red berry-scented pinot, with a soft, rounded palate full of black cherry and blackcurrant flavours.
