Château Cantenac Brown is an 1855 classified third growth, located in Cantenac within the most prestigious Médoc appellation, Margaux. The vineyard was founded over 200 years ago by a Scotsman, John Lewis Brown. This visionary figure selected the best parcels of land: his hard work and high standards were rewarded in 1855 when the Bordeaux Classification ranked Cantenac Brown among the most esteemed vineyards. The ripeness is outstanding, with lots of colour, and refined aromas. It's complex and spicy, while the tannins are elegant and plush but show underlying power. It stands up to the challenge of the 2018 and 2019 vintages, with a pretty dash of supplementary freshness. It's a blend of blend of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot, a great choice for the cellar.

From Robert Parker: A fine follow-up to the excellent 2019, the 2020 Cantenac Brown incorporates newly acquired holdings of Cabernet Sauvignon from the plateau of Margaux. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries, cassis, burning embers and pencil shavings, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with good depth at the core, supple tannins and terrific purity of fruit. Concluding with a long, penetrating finish, it underlines the fact that this is the appellation's fastest-improving estate. Rating: 94+

This is the second-label wine from Chateau Beychevelle, and as is often the case with second-label Bordeaux wines it's not that far removed from it's big sibling. It benefits from the same growing techniques, meticulous sorting, and traditional barrel ageing. It has the same elegance and finesse as its big brother, but reveals its character more quickly, offering wine-enthusiasts the full vivacity of its youth. It can be kept for up to fifteen years, depending on the vintage.

Château Prieuré-Lichine’s history is an amazing mix of different eras and styles. From the Roman origins of the property to its rebirth under the Ballande group, 500 years of historic figures and events at this estate have lent it much respect in the Bordeaux community, thanks in large part to Alexis Lichine, the man who really brought this chateau to the forefront. The 2022 vintage has a deep ruby colour with aromas of cassis, licorice, black cherries, spice and cigar box.. There's lots of dark berry fruit, nougat, taut tannins, minerals, fine salty nuances, and good length. It will continue to improve for another decade or more.

It was not by chance that Bernard O’Phelan (1770-1841), a young Irish wine merchant, left his native town of Tipperary at the end of the 18th century to set himself up in Bordeaux. The town at this time was an important trading hub with the British Isles. Close relations were built up between the families that bought and sold the wines of the region from one another. These links were such that they led to alliances and even marriages, in particular that of Bernard Phélan with one of the daughters of Daniel Guestier, a well-known merchant in the Bordeaux wine market. Helped by the experience of his father-in-law, he could now envisage producing his own wines. At the beginning of the 20th century, Château Ségur de Garramey took on its modern name of Château Phélan Ségur.
