Tasting notes
Baron Henri 2015 offers cassis, toasty spice, blackberry and a touch of smoke. The palate is mature and well balanced with classically styled, well-structured tannins, medium bodied fruit and subtle earthy spice. A mature and sensibly priced claret that drinks well now, and doesn’t require a decade in the cellar. Decant and enjoy.

Château Paradis Casseuil 2018, A.C. Bordeaux
£17.95 Buy The vineyard of Paradis Casseuil is planted with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the classic pairing you find in almost all red Bordeaux blends. The Merlot brings juicy red fruit and the Cabernet Sauvignon brings structure and body. On the nose there's delicate toasted notes with peppery red cherry and almonds. The palate is elegant and medium bodied with redcurrants, red cherry, cedar and spice. This easily accessible claret is perfect for drinking this year, but will hold in the cellar for a couple of years. Enjoy with roast chicken. -
Château Odilon 2018, A.C Haut-Médoc
£22.50 Buy Classic Merlot on the nose; red cherry, blackberry and plum. Micro-oxygenation occurs in the barrel which enables the wine to reveal an array of mature spices; cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg. The dense and rich wine has supple red fruit at its very core. Although this drinks well now after a few hours in a decanter, you can't help thinking it's best years lay ahead. -
