Chateau de Bel-Air - Lalande de Pomerol 2015 

The 2015 Bel-Air is a very pretty, gracious wine. Bright red stone fruit, tobacco and floral notes give it aromatic lift and plenty of sensuality to match its midweight personality.

Lacoste-Borie - Pauillac 2019 

The 2019 Lacoste-Borie is a wine of immense charm.

Maison Blanche - Montagne-St-Emilion 2019
