Château Haut-Bages Libéral, (Magnum) 2020
The property was acquired in 1960 by the Cruse family, who own Château Pontet Canet, they replanted the vineyard and have returned Château Haut-Bages Libéral to its former glory. Today, the property is run by Claire Villars Lurton, who manages the winemaking in a sustainable way. This 5th Classified Growth shares land next to Château Latour and behind Château Pichon Baron, so no wonder it producers impeccable wines, yet at a fraction of the price of the châteaux around them.
Pommard Premier Cru 'Les Grands Epenots', Pierre Meurgey 2018
Pierre Meurgey is a fourth generation winemaker now bottling some incredibly wines under his own name and is only now being discovered (his recent 2020s were very well regarded by Jasper Morris). His father Henri was a courtier and oenologue in the Cote d’Or and was indeed very highly respected by all growers - Pierre is also one to watch, with the 2018 Savigny Les Bas Lairds getting a terrific four-star review from Jasper, whilst the Pernand Vergelesses 2019 is 1er Cru is also a stunner.
