Awarded Chateau
Roger Barlow "There is finesse to this smooth, supple Les Chaumes; it is a wonderful expression of plum and bramble fruits and the careful use of oak leads to a complex finish without oak flavours dominating the fruit."
The Winemaker "Fruity and floral. This wine has great finesse with an impressive expression of red and black fruits." (2014 vintage)
A blend of 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, and is carefully oaked with only 10% new wood used each year.
Chateau Les Chaumes is a 3.5 hectare estate in Bordeaux located between two of the best appellations; Siaurac and Moncets. It has been owned for many generations by the Vigier family. Château Les Chaumes creates great organic wine, well known all around the world. The vineyard's terroir is mostly composed of clay-limestone soils. The best reds of the Château Les Chaumes winery are matured for 12 to 18 months and develop spices and vanilla notes. The wines are fruity and pleasant, reflecting the unique characteristics of the terroir.
Situated on the Right Bank of Bordeaux, Pomerol is dominated by small estates producing premium wines. Pomerol wines are rich, decadent reds, with notes of chocolate, dark cherry, plums and spice, soft tannins and elegance courtesy of the Merlot grape. The most lush—and expensive—wines come from a plateau of clay, gravel and iron, while lighter, more acidic wines come from the region's sandy soils. Approximately 80 percent of the region's plantings are Merlot, unlike other regions of Bordeaux where no one grape dominates so singularly; and one disadvantage is that bad weather can wreak havoc on an individual vintage.

Médaille d'Or Gilbert et Gaillard 2020 (2019 vintage)
Haute valeur environnemental
Merlot 70% and Cabernet Franc 30%
Gerrard Seal "A great little wine that is made to please."
Robert Mitchell "This super little Saint-Emilion comes from the southern part of Saint-Emilion close to Chateau Pavie. It's a classic Saint-Emilion pairing but rather than being aged in oak barrels as its big brother is, this is fermented and aged solely in stainless steel tanks. The wine has a delightful ruby colour and gives intense aromas of red fruits. The palate is elegant and well balanced and leads to a long, true finish." (2019 vintage)
Château Puy-Razac was founded by the legenedary French vigneron, Guy Thoilliez. His success at Château Monbousquet evolved into a professional interest in his own winery creating premium wine of exceptional quality. The winery has Grand Cru status. Château Puy-Razac is located at the foot of the famous 'Pavie' hillside, in the southern part of Saint-Emilion. With exposure to a magnificent sandy-clayey terroir guarantees very well structured wines that are known for their ability to age. The winery produces Cabernet Franc and Merlot (55%).
Saint-Émilion is a fortified historical village that is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but it also has two wine AOCs that are renowned worldwide: Saint-Émilion and Saint-Émilion Grand Cru. The latter appellation also allows the following titles: “Grand Cru classé” and “Premier Grand Cru classé”. The two appellations are geographically intertwined and benefit from an amazing diversity of soil and sub-soil types. They produce a wide variety of wines that can be supple, big, elegant, fruity or mineral. While the two appellation areas are hard to distinguish geographically, only the best wines are entitled to the Grand Cru appellation. They all uphold Saint-Émilion’s values of being genuine, genial and of great quality.

1 x Château La Justice 2016 ~ Bordeaux, France
Organic
Le Devoir Newspaper "Rather proudly adorned, without ostentation,...ample enough to be savoured, but also more restrained, flirting with suppleness and liveliness."
John Hattersley "A classic Bordeaux from the best vineyards overlooking the beautiful Dordogne. Made under Michel Rolland oenologist extraordinaire's watchful eye. Generous black fruit with a hint of coffee, lots of energy and fine aromatics on the finish: it shows how once Fronsac enjoyed stature to rival Pomerol and St Emilion."
The Winemaker "Red and black fruits are very present with notes of wood and vanilla. On the palate, the wine reveals roundness and power. The finish is persistent and elegant. The Château La Justice benefits from the region's mild climate and limestone soils. It contains strong aromas of ripe raspberries, cassis and blackberries as well as hints of spices and vanilla, as well as very subtle wood notes.I t is as complex on the palate as on the nose, opens dense and concentrated, has an undeniable elegance and ends in a long, very soft finish. It is best to set aside an aromatic hard cheese, a Mediterranean vegetable dish or a strong beef steak."
