CLOS CANTENAC ST EMILION
Clos Cantenac, a Grand Cru estate nestled within the Saint-Émilion appellation of Bordeaux.

Predominantly Merlot, accompanied by Cabernet Franc and a hint of Cabernet Sauvignon, the grape varieties thrive in the diverse terroir characterised by clay, limestone, and gravel. The resulting wines are a reflection of the estate's commitment to quality and sustainability. Clos Cantenac wines are known for their elegance, depth, and complexity, offering a sensory journey through the essence of Saint-Émilion. Enthusiasts can relish in each sip, appreciating the blend of tradition and innovation that defines Clos Cantenac's vintages, a true tribute to the illustrious Grand Cru of Saint-Émilion.
CLOS HAUT PEYRAGUEY SAUTERNES
Few places seem to posses the divinely ordained right to produce Bordeaux’s other iconic export, Sauternes, quite like Clos Haut-Peyaguey. Across 12 hectares of plateau-topping Premier Cru Classé vineyard, Semillon (and a smidge of Sauvignon) grapes patiently wait out summer for the noble rot to set in. We’re talking about botrytis, of course. Once it does, the sweetest grapes are handpicked for vinification before being sent for a French oak siesta. The result is one of the world’s most revered sweet white wines. Unctuous and syrypy; floral and fruity; jammy and spicy: trés magnifique!

Chateau Dassault
In 1862 Victor Beylot created the "Château Couperie" in Saint-Émilion. Purchased in 1955 by the aircraft manufacturer Marcel Dassault as a "communication tool" and a subsidiary of the Dassault Group, close to the Dassault sites in Mérignac and Martignas-sur-jalle, he renamed the Château after him. In 1969 Château Dassault obtained the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé classification.

Marsau (BIO ORGANIC)
Château Marsau's 2018 Marsau (BIO ORGANIC) Francs-Côtes de Bordeaux is a true testament to the terroir of Bordeaux. This beautifully crafted wine showcases the region's unique climate and soil with every sip.

The tannins are well-integrated, providing a smooth and elegant mouthfeel. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a touch of minerality on the palate. This 2018 vintage truly captures the essence of Château Marsau's commitment to organic and sustainable winemaking practices. A perfect pairing with red meat dishes or a selection of aged cheeses. Undoubtedly, this wine will continue to evolve gracefully for years to come.
