Two Saint Emilion Grand Cru Bottles

2019 Château Millaud-Montlabert
An upfront, plummy nose with notes of stables, pipe tobacco, mint and a tiny metallic note. Very, very good.
The taste is nicely structured with a fine dryness, notes of plums, chocolate biscuits and tobacco.
89p   (tasted 2026/06)



2012 Château La Marzelle
A round, silky nose with notes of worn leather, tobacco, plums and undergrowth. A lovely sweetness to the fruit.
The taste is creamy and smoky with fine black fruit, polished tannins and a long, warm finish. 
91p   (tasted 2026/06)
