A well-crafted Bordeaux blend from a small appellation near Saint-Émilion, offering excellent value and quality.
Aromas of ripe red berries and violets, with subtle hints of tobacco leaf. The palate is robust yet elegant, featuring fleshy tannins and a lengthy finish.
Pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses, complementing its rich flavours.
Best known in Loire Valley, Bordeaux
Lighter and more fragrant than its famous offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon. Red berries, violets, graphite and a leafy freshness. In the Loire it shines on its own; in Bordeaux it adds perfume to the blend.
Best known in Bordeaux, Napa Valley, Coonawarra
The backbone of Bordeaux and the world's most famous red grape. Blackcurrant, cedar and firm tannins, with real ageing potential. Riper climates give plusher fruit; cooler ones more structure and leafy freshness.
Best known in Mendoza, Cahors
Argentina's signature red. Dark plum, blackberry and violets, with a soft, velvety texture that makes it very easy to like, with high-altitude Mendoza vineyards keeping it fresh. In its original home, Cahors, it makes firmer, darker and more rustic wines.
Best known in Bordeaux, Italy, Chile
Soft, round and approachable. Plum, black cherry and chocolate, with gentle tannins and a plush texture. It leads the blends of Bordeaux's Right Bank, including Pomerol and Saint-Émilion, and makes generous, easy-drinking reds all over the world.
France
The world's most famous wine region. Left bank: Cabernet-led, structured, age-worthy. Right bank: Merlot-forward, plush, generous. The greatest châteaux set the global benchmark for red wine; the Entre-Deux-Mers makes brilliant dry whites.
