Chateau Lynch Moussas 2019
Pauillac, Bordeaux, France

A classic Pauillac. Well defined, youth- and powerful palate. Notes of thick cream, herbs, iron and lots of dark fruits, lingering finish with well integrated tannins.
Château Lynch-Moussas is a 5ème Cru Classé estate located in the south-west of the Pauillac appellation. Lynch-Moussas is typically a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot and it is aged in 60% new oak barrels for between 12 and 18 months. The wines are rich in black fruits and display prominent vanilla notes. For a Pauillac, Lynch-Moussas contains a relatively high proportion of Merlot and is consequently a softer, silkier and lusher wine than many of its neighbours.
Chateau Leoville Barton Saint Julien 2018
Saint Julien, Bordeaux, France
1 x 75cl bottle
Irishman Thomas ‘French Tom’ Barton, one of the so called ‘Wine Geese’, left Co. Fermanagh for France in 1722 and became a merchant, initially trading French brandy for Irish wool before becoming a highly successful Bordeaux wine merchant. His grandson Hugh bought Ch. Langoa Barton in 1821 and a section of vineyards from the Léoville estate in 1826. Both were included in the famous 1855 classification and are unusual in still being owned by the same family. Current owner Lillian Barton, daughter of Anthony who was born in Straffan House in 1930, built by Hugh, and it is now the K Club, Lillian is 9th generation. Chateau Leoville Barton has never had its own chateau and the pretty one on the label is in fact Ch. Langoa Barton, where both wines are made.
"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Léoville Barton needs a little swirling to coax out delicate notions of fresh blackberries, mulberries and cassis, plus touches of pencil shavings, clove oil, charcoal and black truffles. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a great intensity of earth and mineral-laced black fruit flavors, supported by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering ferrous note." Robert Parker
Chateau Phelan Segur 2020
Saint Estephe, Bordeaux, France
1 x 75cl bottle
“The 2020 Phélan Ségur is rich and generous, unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet berries, cherries and plums mingled with hints of violets and spices and framed by creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, it's a concentrated, structured wine underpinned by a chassis of generously extracted tannin that lends it a somewhat youthfully chunky profile.” Robert Parker 93/100 points
Founded by Irishman Bernard Phélan in the early 19 century, his son Frank developed the estate building the stunning country house . Considered by many to be one of the benchmark wine producers in Saint-Estéphe , the winery is now in the very good hands of Philippe Van de Vyvere, who is producing some of the best wines in the chateau's history.
