Country: France, Bordeaux, Haut-MedocGrapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit VerdotABV: 13%Style: Savoury Classic Red93/94 Points - James Suckling. From one of the Haut-Médoc’s standout estates, this 2016 release of Lamothe-Bergeron’s “Nove” shows just how good modern Bordeaux can be. Ripe blackcurrant and plum flavours are wrapped in smooth tannins, with a touch of cedar and graphite for that unmistakable Left Bank character. It’s refined but generous, drinking beautifully now and still full of life for a few more years in the cellar. A great example of why 2016 is such a beloved vintage. Vivino Rating: 4.0 ( -

Aged in oak barrels, it offers richness, structure, and remarkable depth. The result is a full-bodied red with layers of dried cherry, dark chocolate, sweet spice, and a velvety finish.

Country: France, Bordeaux, Saint EstepheGrapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, MerlotABV: 13.5%Style: Savoury Classic Red92 Points - Jane Anson. Bordeaux's Saint Estephe is littered with undiscovered gems, and the Chateau Segur de Cabanac is one of our favourites. Being heavy on Cabernet Sauvignon, it enjoyed a hugely successful 2016, producing a 92-point wine according to leading critic Jane Anson. Rich and spicy with a lovely depth of flavour, bottle age has brought harmony and finesse to this cracking wine.
