Mature vintages | Antique French treasures

Bordeaux, king of mature bottles

This selection is rich in Bordeaux names. Let’s begin in Pauillac with excellent bottles including a 2010 Château Mouton Rothschild, 2003 Château Latour, and a 2010 Château Pontet Canet. Pessac-Léognan vintages include Château Haut-Brion in its 1996, 2001, and 2010. For a legendary Sautnernes, you can’t do better than a dessert white from Château d’Yquem. Afficonados of the right bank might well be interested in a Château Margaux!

Got enough Bordeaux in your cellar already?

The best of Burgundy includes a 2004 Clos de Tart, a 2005 Vosne-Romanée premier cru Les Suchots by Lucien Le Moine, and a 2001 Pinot Noir from the iconic Domaine Coche-Dury!

If it’s a Châteauneuf-du-Pape from the Rhône valley that you’d prefer, you’ll likely be pleased with a Château Rayas, available in its 2003, 2004, 2005, 2009, and 2010 vintages. For something even older, perhaps a 1990 Côte-Rôtie Ampodium from René Rostaing would be up your street.

This selection is a chance for you to get your hands on a 1995 Cristal from Louis Roederer…perfect if yu have something big to celebrate!

Quite a few Jura cuvées have arrived in our cellar lately in their 2010 vintages, and they’re not to be missed: some of our favourites include the Côtes-du-Jura Les Grands Teppes Vieilles Vignes from Domaine Ganevat and a Château Chalon by Jean Macle.

Finally, there are some real gems from the Loire, including a 2005 Vouvray dessert white Constance cuvée from Domaine Huet and a 2001 Clos de la Dioterie cuvée from Charles Joguet.

Now all that’s left is for you to get choosing!
