Maison Les Alexandrins is a collaboration between two renowned winegrowers from the Rhone Valley - Nicolas Jaboulet and Alexandre Caso. Their wines are crafted in a signature style that is at once contemporary and timeless, and always from exceptional vineyards unearthed by Alexandre Caso, a specialist in the terroirs of the Northern Rhone. A blend of 60% Grenache Noir and 40% Syrah sourced from hillside terraces rich in quartz and limestone marls, vinified and matured in wooden and stainless steel vats for 8 months. Beautiful deep red colour with purple reflections. This wine opens up with a powerful and expressive nose with toasted notes, and the Syrah bringing a bouquet of red fruit. On the palate, it reveals elegance and richness through fine tannins that balance the opulent notes of very ripe black fruit, typical Syrah spices and a superb long finish.

There's two undeniable truths about right bank Bordeaux; first and foremost, it's completely brilliant, but, normally, you have to dish out the big bucks to get your hands on the good stuff. Well, that's where we come in, call it luck, call it fate, call it whatever you want, but the reality is that this wine is everything you'd expect from a premium, highly awarded, professionally-aged Bordeaux, for fraction of the price. From the legendary right bank of Bordeaux, this premium drop was built to impress and built to last. And gee whiz, it's met the brief. Still bursting with lifted aromatics of blackcurrant and violet, it’s now developing those savoury notes we all love: think tobacco, leather, a touch of spice and that silky, sleek 'Bordeaux-ness' that you can't quite put your finger on. There structure is firm, the finish long, and the potential? Huge. After paying its debt to the wine gods in the cellar (for 14 years), it’s drinking impeccably right now, but this stunner's journey is far from over... honestly this is the type of wine that will outlast your patience. A proper head-turner.

Built in the 16th century and situated in Barsac at about 30 kilometers from Bordeaux, Château Massereau was acquired by the Chaigneau family in 2000. A 19 hectare estate with 10 planted (6,600 – 7000 plants/hectare) in the Barsac, Graves and Bordeaux Superieur appellations. Château Massereau Bordeaux Supérieur 2018 is a blend of 50% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc & 10% Petit Verdot. Vinified in concrete vats for 4-8 weeks naturally without additional yeast, finings, filtration and low sulphite. The resulting wine is garnet in colour with an intense nose of black fruit, with hints of sweet spice and pepper.

"Replacing the Petit Chapelle cuvee and first made in 2015, the 2016 Hermitage La Maison Bleue is smoking good. Black fruits, charcoal, powdered rock, currants and chocolate notes all give way to a big, concentrated, impressively structures barrel sample that has tons of potential. I expect the tannin will have integrated by the time this is released, but a few years of bottle age still recommended." - Jeb Dunnuck
