Description

Bordeaux is one of the world's largest and most famous winemaking regions, producing wines that range from 'everyday drinking' to some of the most luxurious, exotic, and expensive on the planet!

This collection is a classic example of how good the 'everyday drinking' wines from a great Bordeaux vintage can be. Velvety, plummy merlot rich claret that won't break the bank. Critic James Suckling described Bordeaux's 2016 & 2018 vintages as "exceptional", and with all its luscious, velvety fruit, these Gold winners offer outstanding value.

Collection includes:

2 x Château Laussac Bordeaux 2018 (France)

Awarded Gold Medal: Gilbert Gaillard 2019

Awarded Gold Medal: Gilbert Gaillard 2020
