Two Bottles Of Bordeaux


2006 Château Grandis
A nice, mature nose with notes of autumn leaves, tobacco, graphite and dried black currants.
The taste is medium bodied, dry and low keyed elegant with notes of iron, leather and dried up black currant jam.
87p   (tasted 2026/07)

2005 Château Faizeau Selection Vieilles Vignes
A deep, somewhat mature nose with notes of plums, pipe tobacco, warm tiles and leather. A fine old viney note.
The taste is tight and fine with a peppery note, lots of black fruit and a long, silky finish. Very, very good.
90p   (tasted 2026/07)
