Chateau La Lagune Haut-Medoc 2021
Chateau La Lagune is the first classified growth you encounter driving north from Bordeaux city, a 3ème Cru Classé with gravelly soils that produce wines of real finesse. The 2021 vintage in Bordeaux was challenging but the best estates (like this) delivered focused, elegant wines with excellent aging potential. Classic left bank blend: roughly 60% Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot.
Marchesi Antinori, La Braccesca Bramasole Syrah 2018
The Braccesca Bramasole Syrah, from Cortona, is a variety that works really well in Tuscany, in the right hands of course. We've enjoyed a few bottles of the 2018 recently and it's just gorgeous, reminiscent of a top Northern Rhone yet with a distinctive Tuscan accent. James Suckling awards 95 points and whilst the 2018 is just entering into its drinking window, we can't help but think that like a great Hermitage, this has even more to give with extended cellaring. This is an absolute beauty and comes highly recommended.
