Special Origin
Ducru Beaucaillou 2015 Saint-Julien
$599.99“The 2015 Ducru-Beaucaillou has a high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon at 95%, with just 5% Merlot in the blend. Deep garnet colored, it prances out of the glass with flamboyant notes of rose oil, sandalwood, and star anise, leading to a core of kirsch, warm cassis, and redcurrant jelly, plus a waft of cardamom. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is coated with opulent exotic spices and red and black berry preserves layers, framed by velvety tannins and lovely tension, finishing long and seductive. 98 points.” – Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Independent, November 2022
La Fleur-Petrus 1997
$599.99La Fleur-Pétrus Pomerol 1997 exemplifies the charm and sophistication of mature Bordeaux. Its seamless integration of fruit, earth, and tertiary characteristics makes it a delight to savour, offering a glimpse into the complexity and depth of one of Bordeaux’s esteemed appellations. While it has reached a stage of maturity, it retains enough vitality to captivate the senses and is a testament to the timeless allure of the region.
Remoissenet 1969 Chevalier L’Arquebuse
$599.99A beautifully mature Burgundian expression showing evolved aromatics of dried citrus peel, baked apple, hazelnut, and honeyed wax layered with truffle, spice, and delicate oxidative complexity. The palate is silky and fully integrated, with softened acidity carrying a mellow core of preserved orchard fruit, toasted nuts, and savoury umami depth. Long and contemplative on the finish, unfolding with layers of nutty, earthy nuance and refined tertiary character that speak to its age and quiet complexity. Drink sooner than later.
