Chateau Boyd-Cantenac Grand Cru Classe 2017
On 17 hectares, located in the heart of the siliceous gravels of the Margaux Appellation, these warm, naturally well-drained soils from the Quaternary permit roots to grow deep. Ideal vine age averaging 42 years, optimum plant density of 10 000 vines per hectare and typical varietals: majority Cabernet Sauvignon, all come together to produce wines of rare quality and uncontested character, intense and with great finesse. Over the past two hundred years, the wines of Chateau Boyd-Cantenac have been made in the tradition of the great wines of Margaux.
Sito Moresco Gaja Langhe 2020
Gaja Sito Moresco is a vibrant, expressive red wine from Piedmont's prestigious Langhe region, crafted predominantly from Nebbiolo. Sourced mainly from the Pajorè vineyard in Treiso and Serralunga with east and west-facing exposures on limestone soils, this wine exemplifies the elegance and charm of Piedmontese winemaking with fresh fruit expression, refined minerality, and harmonious structure. Why You'll Love It This is Langhe Nebbiolo with real character—vibrant, fresh, and beautifully balanced with ripe, well-integrated tannins. Produced by Gaja, one of Italy's most legendary wine families, Sito Moresco offers an accessible introduction to the elegance of Piedmontese Nebbiolo without the intensity of Barolo or Barbaresco. The limestone soils lend refined minerality and freshness, while careful winemaking preserves bright fruit character, making this exceptional quality at an outstanding price point. Vineyard & Production Sourced mainly from the Pajorè vineyard in Treiso and Serralunga with east and west-facing exposures. The predominantly limestone soils lend refined minerality and freshness to the wine. Grapes are carefully harvested and vinified to preserve bright fruit character, undergoing gentle maceration and fermentation to develop a juicy, harmonious body. Ripe tannins are integrated naturally, enhancing the wine's elegance and structure. Tasting Notes Intense ruby colour with bright clarity. The nose shows violet, mulberry, and fresh spices. The palate is crunchy and fruity with red plum and cherry, balanced by subtle savoury notes and minerality. Harmonious and fresh with ripe, well-integrated tannins and a long, persistent, refreshing finish. Perfect Pairings Perfect with hearty beef stews, roasted meats, mushroom-based dishes, risotto, aged cheeses, or traditional Piedmontese cuisine. Also excellent with braised short ribs, osso buco, truffle dishes, or grilled lamb. Grape Variety Predominantly Nebbiolo
