Blanc de Duhart Milon (Le)
The Blanc de Duhart Milon (Le) 2021 is a stunning white wine hailing from the prestigious Bordeaux region in France. Crafted by the renowned Chateau Duhart-Milon Rothschild, this vintage showcases the epitome of elegance and finesse. On the nose, delicate floral notes of white lilies and jasmine intertwine with hints of fresh citrus and pear, giving way to a crisp minerality. On the palate, the wine is beautifully balanced with a creamy texture and vibrant acidity. Flavors of white peach, green apple, and zesty lemon dance on the tongue, leaving a long and refreshing finish. The wine displays a pale golden hue, reminiscent of early morning sunlight on a dewy French vineyard. Perfect for any occasion, the Blanc de Duhart Milon (Le) 2021 is a true expression of Bordeaux's terroir and the craftsmanship of its producers.
Château Batailley Pauillac
One of Australia's favourite Pauillac's and favourite Bordeaux's in general year after year. It isn't hard to see why Château Batailley is held is such high esteem with the consistent quality produced year after year. The 2009 marks a high water mark though with Batailley which has seen the wine be regarded with the very best this estate has ever produced. While trademark formidable tannin is still evident, the softness and roundness of the fruit is just a wonder to experience. Will still age for considerable time, most likely 20+ years.
Château d'Armailhac Pauillac
A famous 5th growth Bordeaux from the classic appellation of Pauillac that has undergone many name changes over its life. Starting life as Mouton d'Armailhac before changing in 1956 to Mouton Baron Philippe which changed to Baronne to commemorate the Baron's second wife. In 1991, the Baron's daughter decided to give the Château an original name to separate it from the other Mouton's and Château d'Armailhac was born. Situated across the road from the famous Mouton, the estate is run separately, but with equal care. Wines of great concentration and intensity are produced, as one would expect from such pedigree. The 2009 is the perfect example of this with a wine of fantastic intensity and concentration. One of the finest d'Armailhac's is living memory, swathes of blueberry, roasted meats and espresso coffee characters are present early and will only further develop with careful ageing over the next 20 years.
Château Duhart-Milon Pauillac
Left in a sorry state by the previous owners, in 1962 the Rothschilds of Lafite took over the property and begun to reconstruct the vineyard which was planted mostly to Petit Verdot. 4 decades later and the wines of Château Duhart-Milon are now showing the flavour and concentration you expect from such a site in Pauillac.
Château Angélus Saint-Emilion
A very important estate in St-Émilion, Château Angélus was acquired by the de Boüard de Laforest family in 1924 and merged with the previously owned Château Mazerat. The apostrophe was dropped in 1989 and is now simply known as Angélus. The wines are characterised by a fabulous texture offered by the high component of Cabernet Franc with the plump softness added by the Merlot creating a wine of pleasing plushness.
