This morning we have several new releases, including two from the fashion giant Chanel. One might wonder what a Parisian fashion house and perfumer is doing producing Margaux and St Emilion. What we can tell you is that Rauzan Segla and Canon are much improved. The hard work and considerable investment are really paying dividends - these are two great efforts.
Next we have Alain Vauthier’s Moulin St George. The vineyards of this St Emilion property adjoin those of the great Chateau Ausone. Robert Parker has referred to this property as a `junior Ausone` in the past, and we believe it to be amongst the best value buys from St Emilion.
Jumping back to the other side of the Garonne, we have the release of Branaire Ducru. This fourth growth property is well situated across the road from Beychevelle - another consistent performer from the St Julien commune.
To complete the round up, we have the mighty impressive de Fieuzal. This Pessac property has wowed Mr Parker; a really long-term effort and stunning value for money…
