The top wine from Château de Sours, this is a rich, full-bodied Merlot that’s piled high with ripe tannins and blackberry and bitter cherry flavors. Wood aging adds a complex feel, and this selection will certainly benefit from aging 3–4 years.

This wood-aged wine has richness, toastiness and a concentration of pink grapefruit and fresh kiwi flavors. It’s full and it shows some herbaceousness. It needs to age for 3–4 years.

Full and rich, this has flavors of spice, juicy black currant and mulberry, with a fine tannin backdrop and a dry core. The wood aging has smoothed the fruity finish.

With his almost half-and-half blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, Scotsman Esme Johnstone has produced a ripe, modern, fruity wine, with a light touch of oak to round out the fruit and its balancing acidity.

A blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine is almost dry, but with just a hint of crushed strawberries to add a softer character. It’s light and fresh—a fine aperitif style.
