The harvest began very early, on the 5th September, and lasted 9 weeks. This made is possible to reflect all the diversity of a year in which both flowering and veraison were very spread out. Picking began especially early at Yquem in 2014. Some 25% of the crop was brought in before the 15th of September, providing a rare and precious background of acidity.

A profound Grand Cru Chardonnay. This dry, full-bodied wine delivers exceptional power and complexity, showcasing intense minerality, ripe orchard fruit, and a formidable structure. A truly magnificent and age-worthy expression of Corton-Charlemagne.

This exceptional Champagne immediately captivates with a rich bouquet of toasted nuts, delicate citrus, and hints of brioche. On the palate, experience a full-bodied embrace of baked apple and subtle spice, with a lively acidity and a long, seamless finish that speaks of remarkable depth and character.

Château Latour is the epitome of power and bold concentration that is Pauillac. With a high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon, the brilliant close knit tannin complimenting the vibrant cassis driven fruit is something to behold. It is often said that buyers of Latour worry about the wines they purchase will outlive them quite considerably such is the pedigree of such a wine. This is a definite concern for the 2009 vintage which is being reported as being the very best in living memory. The wine itself is a masterclass in concentration and power only with a robust and joyful front and mid-palate. Notes of blackberry and dark plum dance along with secondary characters of subtle oak and pencil shavings. A rambunctuous back palate that is almost thick and viscous that is truly forboding. Robert Parker Jnr has been quoted as saying

This 2019 Chateau d'Yquem Sauterne is a masterful creation from the renowned Château Yquem in France. The wine boasts a beautiful golden hue, inviting you in with aromas of ripe apricots, honeyed peaches, and subtle hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, it delivers a luscious and complex experience with flavors of candied citrus, tropical fruits, and a lingering honeyed finish. The vibrant acidity perfectly balances the rich sweetness, making each sip a delightful journey for the senses. This half-bottle size is perfect for a special occasion or to save for future enjoyment. Whether paired with a decadent dessert or simply enjoyed on its own, the Chateau d'Yquem Sauterne 375ml 2019 is a true treasure from France that will leave a lasting impression.

Chateau Lafite Rothschild is widely considered one of the great Bordeaux estates, and certainly the upper echelon of the famed Medoc appellation. Owned by Baron Eric de Rothschild, the vineyards are located in the north of Pauillac near the boundary of St Estephe - while the site has allegedly been planted since the 14th century, the wines have been a staple only since the 17th century, and with increasing interest in the provenance more recently, following the Second World War. At 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Merlot in 2010, this is a benchmark release that will be celebrated for generation. Increasing attention in cellar and vineyard has only enhanced the wines and their demand, due to continuing fine-tuning of quality.

Château Haut-Brion was the one and only estate outside of the Médoc and Sauternes to be bestowed 1st Growth status in the original classification of 1855. That reputation and standing has withstood over 150 years and can be tasted in what can only be described as 'blockbuster' white wine. A blend of 62% Sauvignon Blanc and 38% Semillon, this wine should be held up as the flag-bearer for all Bordeaux Blancs. Mind blowing texture is the trademark of 2009 along with superb flavours and aromas of lemon scented cream, orange skin and a touch of lanolin. The ageing propensity of this wine is not be underestimated and will last in a good cellar for at least 30 years.
