Château La Mission Haut-Brion 2020
This wine is offered in individual wooden cases La Mission Haut-Brion sits directly across the road from its more famous neighbour, yet it has never played second fiddle — not really. This is Pessac-Léognan at its most serious: a wine of iron, smoke, and extraordinary depth that comes from some of the finest gravel over clay soils in all of Graves. The 2020 vintage was a genuinely great year in Bordeaux, warm and concentrated but with enough freshness to keep everything taut, and La Mission made the most of it. Cabernet Sauvignon leads, with Merlot and a whisper of Cabernet Franc providing weight and perfume.
Marchesi Antinori, Solaia 2020
Solaia is the crown jewel of the Antinori family, nestled in the heart of Tenuta Tignanello, between Greve and Val di Pesa. The name "Solaia", meaning "sunny one," reflects the vineyard’s ideal exposure, and it’s been wowing wine lovers since its debut in 1978. While Tignanello is all about Sangiovese, Solaia takes a different approach—its blend is led by Cabernet Sauvignon, with Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc adding depth and complexity. This iconic site produces some of the finest fruit on the planet and the wine has the scores to match, consistently earning sky-high praise from critics.
