Great value from the right bank

Posted by Julian Campbell, Buyer
We can now offer three of the best value wines from the right bank. Firstly, Feytit Clinet, a 91-93 Parker point Pomerol. This estate has wonderful terroir and consistently makes attractive and very well priced Pomerol. Secondly, the marvellous Petite Eglise, the second wine from L`Eglise Clinet. Denis Durantou is one of the finest wine-makers in Bordeaux and his 2008 Petite Eglise exhibits all the qualities you would expect from one of his wines. Thirdly, and possibly the best value of all is La Chenade. This Lalande de Pomerol property has made a wonderful 2008 – packed with juicy, fruit character, this is a really impressive and delicious little drinker.
