Drinking Now Top Value Clarets

Today you can take your pick from three stunning value clarets.

Not only are all three drinking beautifully right now, but each one is from superb estates with a proven pedigree of winemaking excellence. Better still, they all have a track record of punching way above their humble price tags.

Château Le Peyrat 2019, in the Côtes de Castillon.

Castillon is Saint-Emilion’s next door neighbour, an appellation coined by Decanter as Bordeaux’s “Gold Coast”. It is a continuation of the Cote of St Emilion, with the same limestone and clay terroir. Wine making royalty such as Le Pin, L’Eglise Clinet and Beau-Sejour Becot have all purchased vines here, recognising the potential and value of these vineyards. The best wines from Castillon are not just excellent, silky, voluptuous and fragrant – but terrific value too. Château Le Peyrat’s glorious 2019 is a veritable powerhouse of richly textured, vibrant black fruit, and earthy tones nestled around fine, glossy tannins.

With this email Château Le Peyrat 2019 is (temporarily) reduced to just £8.50 a bottle.

Château Capbern 2017 from St Estèphe.

All violets, cassis and bright cranberry, refined and chiselled, with great focus and intensity, this suave red is from the heart of St Estèphe, sitting between Château Montrose and Capbern’s sister estate, 3eme Cru Classe, Calon Segur, whose wine making team also craft this gem into one of the best value wines in the Medoc. You won’t find much more bang for your buck anywhere in Bordeaux.

With this email Château Capbern 2017 is (temporarily) reduced to just £19.50 a bottle.

Château Picque Caillou 2017 from Pessac Leognan

This perennial favourite of ours (and The Wine Advocate) makes a habit of outclassing far more illustrious names from Pessac Léognan. Being a stone’s throw from the commune’s biggest names: Carmes, Mission and Haut Brion, certainly helps in that regard. Full-bodied, rich and packed with juicy fruit, Château Picque Caillou is sure to delight friends and family and will be easy on your purse strings too, especially if you buy today.

With this email Château Picque Caillou 2017 is (temporarily) reduced to just £19.00 a bottle.

These wines brilliantly represent what Bordeaux does so well – food friendly, every day drinking reds, impeccably made and offering pure drinking pleasure.
