1 x Château de Cathalogne Bordeaux 2021 (France)

Awarded GOLD MEDAL: Elle à table
Awarded GOLD MEDAL: Gilbert & Gaillard

A classic blend of 50% Merlot & 50% Cabernet Sauvignon. The high proportion of Merlot makes this 'everyday' Bordeaux really sing. It has lovely aromas reminiscent of sun-ripened blackberries, dark plums and black currants. Medium-bodied with ripe tannins and a fruity style where you will find dark fruits such as blackberries, dark plums, black currants and a touch of licorice.

Alc: 13.5% - Seal: Cork

1 x Les Deux Pins Merlot 2023 (France)

Sometimes you need something smashable, something that is tasty but you need to think about too much!  This youthful, plump Merlot is it. Fruit forward, super soft and easy to drink.

Languedoc Roussillon is the most exciting region in France providing much of France's best value wines. The beauty of Merlot grown in this region lies in its fleshy fruitiness, shown here to great effect.

1 x Château Fonfroide Bordeaux 2021 (France)

Awarded GOLD MEDAL: Gilbert & Gaillard

"From vines situated in the heart of the Entre-Deux-Mers region, this is just what we want from everyday Bordeaux.  Tons of blackcurrant fruit with some tannins to give it structure and a lovely fresh finish. Everyday Claret at its best"

Perched on a cliff overlooking Bordeaux’s meandering Durezes River stands Chateau Fonfroide. A cold spring on the property gives the chateau its name and helps irrigate the 185-acre vineyard. History is rich here, firmly rooted in the limestone and clay soil, tilled and cared for by the Dutheillet de Lamothe family for over 300 years! Merlot, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon and malbec join together in a compelling bottle of everyday Bordeaux.
