Bordeaux Vintage Red Wine between £40 - £80
From the outstanding 2009 vintage and scoring 90/100 Parker points,"This is another over-achieving estate that tends to produce wines with lots of intensity and structure. This wine certainly has the formidable intensity one expects from Charmail, but the tannins are silky smooth and the result is the sexiest Charmail to date. An opulent, even voluptuously textured wine, full-bodied and dense purple in color, it is a seductive blend of 47% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered and came in with natural alcohols of 14%. The low acidity, plush fruit and silky tannins all suggest drinking this over the next decade. It is another sleeper of the vintage". Drink now - 2032. This vintage wine is shipped in a silk lined wooden presentation box with four wine accessories (corkscrew, wine pourer, drip stopper & wine thermometer) [worth £17.99] at no extra cost and now includes a free gift card with your personal message and tasting and storage notes.

From the outstanding 2009 vintage and scoring 91/100 Parker points,"The 2009 Tronquoy Lalande, a blend of 51% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Petit Verdot, is the finest wine they have yet produced. It reveals an opulent bouquet of mulberries, blueberries, raspberries and spring flowers, full body, silky tannin, low acidity and a lush, pure mouthfeel. This uncharacteristically round, generous, sumptuous wine should be drinkable early on." Drink now - 2035.

Scoring 89-91/100 Parker points, this red wine from the outstanding 2016 vintage "The 2016 Caronne Ste Gemme has a very attractive nose witih wild strawberry and raspberry scents, cedar and a touch of mint. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp red berry fruit, a fine line of acidity, linear and taut but with plenty of freshness and an almost Pauillac-like character on the finish." Drink now - 2038.
