One of the UK’s best loved and quintessential Pauillacs has been released to considerable critical acclaim. Long recognised as a wine that consistently outperforms its classification, Neal Martin (Vinous.com) has again confirmed this by awarding it the exact same 96-98 points as first growths Lafite and Mouton Rothschild!
With high scores and accolades from critics across the board and released at a reasonable price of £60 per bottle, we all agree this offers really good value…
“a Pauillac endowed with huge potential.” NM
“2022 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a brilliant classic in the making… reminiscent of a modern-day and less forbiddingly structured version of this estate’s brilliant 1982.” WK
“An excellent wine that really over delivers …I love it” GH
Owned by the Borie family (Château Ducru-Beaucaillou & Château Haut-Batailley) Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2022 is most definitely worth taking notice of – it is one of the most spectacular wines of the Medoc and one of the all-time great GPLs .

Chateau Gardegan, Bordeaux Superieur 2020
Another excellent release from a great vintage. It is softer and more elegant than the 2019 but the style is similar – layers of rich red fruit, underpinned with a hint of plums and spices. Soft... ripe tannins and vanilla from the oak barrels already integrated in the wine and a great long finish. Drink now - 2029. I recommend opening it 30 mins before serving which will allow it to open up.

Chateau Pontet-Canet 5eme Cru Classe, Pauillac 2022
Château Pontet Canet 2022, in our view and those of the critics, has made an outstanding Pauillac in this great vintage. Awarded a potential perfect 100 points from James Suckling "The 2022 Château... Pontet-Canet is brilliant " JD a "Pauillac in all its powerful, energetic glory" LPB
"The 2022 Château Pontet-Canet is brilliant and should easily be up with the crème de la crème from the Médoc." 97-99+ points, Jeb Dunnuck
"It is impossible not to love this wine" 19+ points, Matthew Jukes
"I very much admire the precision and vibrancy here. Unforgettable, Antonio Galloni
Pontet Canet has long been at the forefront of biodynamic viticulture in Bordeaux; practices (a Limoges clay-based sunscreen and a camomile spray to counter any hydric stress) which lent themselves to be in harmony with the warmer climatic conditions in 2022, resulting in vines that were in perfect health.
Alfred Tesseron told us that 2022 is the best wine that Pontet Canet has made under his ownership. "It has everything" he said. Production is down 20% on last year and the harvest was the earliest ever, starting on September 8th. It was also the longest harvest, finishing on the 28th. The blend is 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot with the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot
A fifth growth, but with its vineyards next to those of Mouton Rothschild, Pontet Canet belongs to an elite club of over-achieving chateaux offering incredible value, at a mere fraction of its Medoc peers.
No wonder Alfred Tesseron was smiling!

Chateau Rauzan-Segla 2eme Cru Classe, Margaux 2022
The epic Château Rauzan-Ségla 2022, “a wine that’s going to flirt with perfection, always one of the most sought after and best value super seconds has been released, however the 2022 is... something else! Under the stewardship of dynamic winemaker Nicolas Audebert and part of the Chanel triumvirate along with Canon & Beliquet, Rauzan-Ségla is on an upward trajectory, going from strength to strength; it is an estate “firing on all cylinders “ and the 2022 is a “brilliant” wine, sophisticated, charming, rich, wonderfully textured with seamless silky tannins, grace and perfect balance.
