Chambolle-Musigny, Domaine Georges Roumier, Burgundy 2022 vs Château Le Thil, Comte Clary, (Magnum) 2020

Château Le Thil, Comte Clary, (Magnum) 2020

Château Le Thil is one of those under-the-radar Bordeaux gems that really makes you sit up and take notice. Nestled in the heart of Pessac-Léognan, just down the road from the legendary Smith Haut Lafitte (in fact, it shares the same ownership), Le Thil combines pedigree with serious value. The vintage was kind to this corner of Bordeaux, and it shows in the glass. You get all the classic hallmarks—dark, juicy fruit, subtle spice, and a lovely thread of minerality—wrapped up in a sleek, finely balanced frame. There’s freshness, precision, and just enough grip to hint at how well this will age. A wine that punches well above its weight and overdelivers for the price. For our Club Members looking for a savvy Left Bank buy with real class, this is a bottle to stock up on before the word gets out.
