BORDEAUX ROUGE
At the entry point level, the
excellent
Château Carmes-Cantiollac
is a stylish,
elegant wine from a good year. The beautifully
crafted Château
Nardou is
another
wine from the Dubard stable. Owned by Serge Dubard’s younger brother
Florent
(who has left his medical practice and wife in Paris to start afresh in
Bordeaux)
this wine is made under the careful supervision of Serge; a wine of
classic depth,
good structure and delicious black fruit with assertive but
smooth tannins.

Two
wines not to miss: Château la Claymore in Lussac St-Émilion makes a
medal-winning
red that is beautifully structured wine with masses of fruit and extract - and
their second wine
Cadet de Claymore is astonishingly good for the price - softer, but still
very fine with a subtle
blackcurrant bouquet, and improving year on year. The elegant Château Lamour
comes from
a tiny grand cru estate and is made from 70% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The Clos del’Eglise from Lalande de Pomerol is just sublime – one of the
stars on the
list: a vinous iron fist in a velvet glove!

Château Beauregard,
from the Graves, is a smooth wine with supple red fruit flavours.
Château Beaumont has long been a favourite in this country and comes from
the same
stable as Château Beychevelle, producing clarets of elegance and complexity at a
very reasonable price.
Also from the Château Beychevelle stable comes Amiral de Beychevelle,
the second label of
Beychevelle and makes very soft, approachable wines. Les Fiefs de Lagrange
is the second wine of
Château Lagrange, and produces wines of excellent depth and concentration for a
second label.
The superb wines of Château Potensac, a Médoc of real class from the
Delon family. The Réserve de la Contesse
2004 is the second label of 2nd growth superstar Château
Comtesse de Lalande and exudes true class.
