This selection forms the basis of what is available for delivery to your door in the UK. Alternatively you can go to our ecommerce site www.boursot.com where you can look at, order and pay for your wines. Because the wines are to be delivered, their prices are different to our shop collected prices because each bottle must be repackaged for safe transport and there is also a contribution towards the very high cost of delivery. The calculation is made automatically when you check out.

If you should like advice on either the wines or how to order, please do call us on +33 321 36 81 46 and we will be delighted to help however we can.

There is neither a minimum nor a maximum quantity when sending wines into the UK.

Do please remember that since 1 January 2021 there are new UK government taxes and charges for imports into the UK.

UK duty as well as VAT on that duty, and VAT on the wine value of your consignment, will now be requested by the courier company at the time of delivery, together with a charge for collecting tax on behalf of the UK government. However in France we will not charge you the French VAT on the wine value so at least that part will be taken care of by us.

Even after all these new complications and costs, there are still savings to be had by buying your quality French wines from us. The best savings of course can be achieved by coming to Ardres and taking away what you like: there should be no supplementary charges when taking any quantity of wines back into the UK, when travelling via the tunnel.

We look forward to providing you with our great wines.

With my best wishes
Guy Boursot

This selection forms the basis of what is in stock most of the time. These are all good quality wines and spirits that offer excellent value - especially when compared with their prices charged in the UK. We prefer to show keen headline prices, rather than raise them so as to take off some notional "discount". The euro price you see is the price you pay.

You probably know some of the choices already, but we will of course be happy to explain individual styles - and of course you can taste many of them when you are able to travel again. We have no minimum (or maximum!) order requirement and you can mix your bottles and cases as much as you like.

You can also have your favourite wines sent directly to our premises from the vineyards, so that you can simply hop across to collect these cases, taking advantage of low French prices and you do not pay any UK duty if the wines are for your personal consumption and within current UK limits. Please call or e-mail for further details.

It is always helpful if you can place your order before you arrive. In that way, we can ensure that your order is pulled out of stock and is ready for your arrival.

The attractive town of Ardres is easily accessible, being just 15 minutes from both the tunnel and Calais. See Map.

The Ardres shop is open Monday - Saturday 10.00 - 6.00 with no closure for lunch

If you are likely to be here outside these hours, please contact us in advance and we shall be happy to open up - always assuming one of us is available.

Being in France, we charge in euros so the sterling price shown here is simply an approximate guide and is obviously dependant upon the exchange rate offered by your bank. We accept Mastercard and Visa, or cash in euros. We also accept payments by bank transfer : please ask and we will send you our bank account details.

We are here to help you and we look forward to seeing you soon.

With my best wishes

Chéreau Carré is one of the best producers of Muscadet. This is a bone-dry wine that has a zingy freshness about it, without the acidity that so many Muscadets can have.

Sauvignon de Touraine, Domaine de Marcé (Loire), 2020
For years we followed Domaine Octavie in this same village of Oisly, but recently have found this new wine which we believe to be equally good whilst of even better value. Coming from 20 year old vines, the wine is fresh, fruity and not acidic – it’s delightful and can be enjoyed either with or without food. Now regularly awarded gold medals for its quality.

6.80€   £5.70

  BOTTLE Qty:
Picpoul de Pinet, Domaine Morin Langaran (Languedoc), 2020
Bone dry but with plenty of smooth fruit - the perfect accompaniment to fish and white meat. Also easy to enjoy by itself, serve it very cool to appreciate its refreshing character. Do not confuse this with some of the boring examples on today’s market, this is from one of the two best producers of the area. Best when enjoyed young and fresh. Picpoul is the grape and Pinet is the town close to Mèze near Agde on the south coast.

7.10€   £5.90

(Price in UK shops: £11.25)

  BOTTLE Qty:
Viognier, Extrait de Romarion, Foncalieu, IGP Pays d’Oc (Languedoc), 2019
The Viognier grape has an exotic fruit aroma and grapey-ness and is a bit different, and this lovely wine, made by the dynamic Foncalieu, is mouth wateringly delicious and is really easy to enjoy by itself or with lighter foods. A delicious example of proper Viognier!

7.20€   £6.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Fayolle, Bergerac Sec (Bordeaux), 2018
A regular medal winning dry Bergerac made from 95% Sauvignon and 5% Sémillon grown on chalky ground. A wine to be enjoyed young with its vibrant fruit and fresh floral aromas. Easy to appreciate.

7.50€   £6.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Domaine du Bourg Neuf, Chenin Blanc, Saumur (Loire), 2020
A very dry and crisp wine with fruit aromas; especially good with light foods. This is a most attractive wine made on the Joseph family’s 39 hectare estate in Varrains. The 2020 has just been awarded a medal and it’s a wine that you could keep happily for 10 years or more.

7.50€   £6.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Bourgogne Aligoté, Buissonnier (Burgundy), 2020
Aligoté is the "other" grape of Burgundy and produces a wine with more freshness than that produced from the Chardonnay. It is very dry. This is produced in the Chablis area and is an excellent example at a very reasonable price.

7.90€   £6.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gros et Petit Manseng N° 4, Domaine Uby (Gascogne), 2021
A wine with exotic fruit flavours but that is off-dry. An explosion of refreshing fruit in the mouth from this typical Gascony wine.

7.90€   £6.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Les Galets Dorés, Château Mourgues du Grès, Costières de Nîmes (Rhône), 2019
Considering the warmth in this region close to the Rhône, it is remarkable that such a wine can remain so fresh. A medium wright dry white made from Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Vermentino with an aroma reminiscent of white flowers and citric fruits. A good accompaniment to spicier food such as oriental food.

8.40€   £7.00

(ORGANIC)

  BOTTLE Qty:
Saint-Bris, Sauvignon, Bailly-Lapierre (Burgundy), 2020
This is the only Sauvignon allowed in the Burgundy area and this specific example has a lovely complexity with the minerality of a good Chablis whilst having the freshness of the Sauvignon. It is grown just outside Chablis and is freshand dry but has more softness than most Sauvignons. Fruity and easy to appreciate.

8.70€   £7.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Touraine Oisly, Sauvignon, Coulée Galante, Domaine de Marcé (Loire), 2020
A richer style of Sauvignon, from Oisly, the village that produces probably the best Touraine Sauvignons. Put your nose to the glass and you will immediately sense the fullness of this impressive Sauvignon. Low acidity but beautifully balanced – made by Christophe Godet, this is impressive by all standards.

8.90€   £7.40

  BOTTLE Qty:
Coteaux du Giennois, Les Charmes, Domaine Catherine et Michel Langlois (Loire), 2020
Clearly Sauvignon on the nose and on the palate but this has a softness of fruit, rather than the more pungent style of many Sauvignon Blanc wines. Selected by the 2022 Guide Hachette and also awarded gold by the Concours Mondiale des Feminalisé in 2021, this offers excellent value for a wine that is often classified as an alternative Sancerre!

8.90€   £7.40

  BOTTLE Qty:
Côtes du Rhône Blanc, Terroir d'Exception, Domaine Grande Romane, Pierre Amadieu (Rhône), 2020
A really good quality fresh and fruity white made entirely from Clairette vines that were planted at altitude in 1955. The grapes are pressed and then fermented in new oak casks and kept on the lees for better flavour extraction. The wine has a freshness yet a richness, making it perfect to enjoy by itself – and of course it will go with all the usual fishy suspects as well as lighter meats! This highly sought wine has a limited production.

9.10€   £7.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Muscat de Rivesaltes, Château de Corneilla, Vin Doux Naturel, 2020
One of the finest Muscats we’ve tasted recently: a lighter and more refreshing style of wine than Muscat de Beaumes de Venise, this is citric-fresh but sweet. An excellent dessert wine at a sensible price.

9.80€   £8.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Respide, Graves (Bordeaux), 2020
This is a lovely wine: made from 66% Sémillon and 34% Sauvignon. Because the wine has undergone micro-oxygenation, it has an open and appealing freshness and fruitiness on the nose and in the mouth. Great with first courses, fish, chicken or even with many lighter cheeses.

9.80€   £8.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Comte Leloup du Château de Chasseloir, Cuvée des Ceps Centenaires, Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine, Sur Lie (Loire), 2018
At Château de Chasseloir there are five hectares of vines that are more than 100 years old. These grapes are picked by hand, and the wine has its lees stirred in tank for 9 to 10 months and finally it is aged for at least two years in bottle so as to create this very special cuvée. Dry but with body and complexity: fab!.

9.90€   £8.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Morillon Blanc by Jeff Carrel, Vin de Pays de l'Aude (Languedoc), 2020
Morillon Blanc is the original name of the Chardonnay. This wine is made from botrytised Chardonnay grapes that have been vinified as a dry wine partly in barrel and partly in steel tanks. The result is a deliciously soft sweeter smelling Chardonnay but with a pardoxically dry style. A really interesting wine.

9.90€   £8.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Muscat Sec, Cuvée Augustin, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2018
The Muscat grape gives a delightful orange-like fragrance to its wines. This fine example is grapey and refreshing – especially when served chilled with light summer dishes.

10.30€   £8.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Lirac Blanc, La Fermade, Domaine Maby (Rhône), 2020
Made predominantly from Grenache Blanc with Clairette, Picpoul and Viognier, the juice is cold fermented to retain freshness. It has light, floral aromas, with more softness and fullness in the mouth and finishes with a little spiciness - a lovely marriage of flavours that makes it so good to accompany various lighter foods. This wine is regularly applauded by the wine guides and critics.

10.90€   £9.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Mâcon-Solutré-Pouilly, Domaine Pascal & Mireille Renaud (Burgundy), 2020
The village of Solutré produces a slightly more minerally style among the top Mâcon villages and this is super. Highly recommended, this is easy to appreciate.

10.90€   £9.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Ménétou-Salon, Le Prieure de Saint-Céols (Loire), 2019
Ménétou made its name some years ago as the less well known neighbour to Sancerre at a lesser price. Nowadays Ménétou wines can be of about the same price so they need to have the quality to support this status. This excellent example is crisp and fresh and still represents exceptional value.

11.00€   £9.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Mâcon-Fuissé, Château Vitallis (Burgundy), 2021
Full of grapey flavour but with a lighter texture, this is a mouth wateringly delicious wine. This is white Mâcon at its best, and if you have not already, you should try this – it’s outstanding!

11.40€   £9.50

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Fontenille, Les Survivantes, Bordeaux Blanc Sec, 2020
This is a delicious wine made from old Sémillon, Sauvignon Gris and Sauvignon Blanc vines that has been aged for six months in oak to harmonise the flavours. Because the style is abnormal to the appellation of Entre Deux Mers, the wine has to be "declassified" to straight Bordeaux Blanc - but just taste it and you will see that this is in a superior league of quality. It has exotic fruit aromas and flavours whilst being dry and it is delicious served with lighter foods.

11.70€   £9.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pacherenc de Vic-Bilh, Torus, Alain Brumont, Doux (Gascogne), 2018
The famous sweet wine of Gascony, made from late harvested Petit Manseng grapes. This wine has an almost delicate freshness – it’s lovely. You could serve it either at the beginning or at the end of a meal.

12.40€   £10.30

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gewürztraminer, Tradition, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2020
A good example of a classic Gewürztraminer: fragrant but dry with an aroma reminiscent of lychees. Delicious, refreshing and different – the perfect partner to most first courses and it even goes well with spicy food! Regularly described by you as one of the best Gewürztraminers. There is currently a shortage of Gewürztraminer from recent harvests.

12.70€   £10.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pinot Gris, Cuvée Bénédicte, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2019
This grape used to be known as the Tokay of Alsace, more recently as the Tokay Pinot Gris and now the Pinot Gris. Faller makes some lovely refreshing wines. Here, a powerfully grapey, almost sweet smelling, aroma precedes a dry flavour, creating an alluring paradox. This medium dry wine will marry perfectly with exotic food or even, foie gras.

12.90€   £10.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Montagny, Premier Cru, Les Coères, Vignerons de Buxy (Burgundy), 2018
Montagny is another of the four main wine producing villages in the Côte Chalonnaise and produces lighter styles of dry white wine from the Chardonnay grape. Buxy produces the majority of all Montagny and this particular Premier Cru is full of dry flavour and is of excellent quality. Good for your special entertaining.

12.90€   £10.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Riesling, Trottacker de Ribeauvillé, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2016
Faller is based in the picturesque town of Ribeauvillé, where many of Alsace’s best Rieslings are produced. Fabulous: from argilo-calcareous subsoil, this wine is bone dry but with plenty of typical Riesling flavour. We always compare Faller’s wines very favourably against Trimbach’s – but at so much better value. This wine is of a Grand Cru quality but of course without its normal price tag.

13.20€   £11.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Chablis, Maurice Tremblay, 2020
Maurice Tremblay's Chablis wines come from a very respectable producer and we have succeeded in finding you great value for your money. Tremblay's wines have the "minerality" of a classic Chablis but also have a deliciously full dry fruitiness on the palate, with a long aftertaste. Forget the bland Chablis sold by multiple retailers, this wine is classic proper Chablis. Outstanding value.

13.40€   £11.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Saint-Véran, A la Côte, Château Vitallis (Burgundy), 2020
This is a seriously “upper crust” wine made at Château de Vitallis with the typical light mineral aroma of this appellation but it has an additional richness on the palate. You do not need to pay more for a truly delicious Saint-Véran.

13.70€   £11.40

  HALF LITRE Qty:
Lyre, Muscat de Petits Grains, Vendanges PasserilléesDomaine de l’Arjolle (Côtes de Thongue), 2018
Lyre’s Muscat grapes are harvested late in mid-October by which time they have shrivelled slightly, expelling water from the grapes. The juice is fermented and aged in oak for 10 months. The finished product is an elegant sweet nectar that appears to be full of exotic fruit flavours. Elegant packaging too!

13.80€   £11.50

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pouilly Fumé, Domaine de Bel-Air (Loire), 2020
We have recently transferred our allegiance to this excellent producer, Monsieur Mauroy aat Bel-Air. The wine has very good dry, light and fresh Sauvignon fruit with a hint of spiciness. It’s crisper in style than our Sancerre.

14.80€   £12.30

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Varennes, Savennières (Loire), 2018
A bone dry wine made from 100% Chenin Blanc that could age over the next 10 years with no problem, to become fuller and softer in style.

15.90€   £13.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Crozes-Hermitage Blanc, Sens, Fayolle Fils & Fille (Rhône), 2020
A fresh floral, yet honeyed, style made from 60% Marsanne and 40% Roussanne vinified at low temperature in stainless steel. Lovely to drink by itself or during a meal of fish or white meat. It’s something a bit special! Good to drink over the coming three years.

16.20€   £13.50

  HALF BOTTLE Qty:
  BOTTLE Qty:
Château Jany, Sauternes (Bordeaux), 2020
Sauternes is still known as the producer of some of the greatest sweet wines in the world. This sweet wine has a light, floral aroma and on the palate, the wine opens out to become richer. Made from Sauvignon and Sémillon.

9.20€   £7.70
16.30€   £13.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Sancerre, Cuvée Beau Roy, Domaine Reverdy Ducroux (Loire), 2020
This new wine is simply lovely, and has a light, fresh yet soft Sauvignon fruit that is dangerously delicious! The soil is chalky and full of fossils and this combination gives the Sauvignon a perfect environment. Reverdy is one of the top names in Sancerre. You should not be disappointed with our new find.

16.40€   £13.70

  BOTTLE Qty:
Casta Diva, Lirac Blanc, Domaine Maby (Rhône), 2018
This wine has probably been awarded every top medal there is to be won in any competition that it is entered for. A beautiful Lirac made from 68% Clairette and 32% Viognier and fermented in new oak casks. It is fresh yet it has lovely spicy fruit and oak flavours. The owner of the domaine, Richard Maby, is fanatical about opera (as you might have imagined!).

17.90€   £14.90

  BOTTLE Qty:
Chablis Premier Cru, Beauroy, Maurice Tremblay, 2019
This Premier Cru Chablis has more body and apparent fruit in the mouth than a "straight" Chablis and it represents exceptional value. Maurice Tremblay's Chablis are widely respected, having much of the steeliness of character that characterise the better wines of Chablis.

19.60€   £16.30

  HALF BOTTLE Qty:
Château Coutet, Premier Grand Cru Classé, Barsac-Sauternes (Bordeaux), 2017
For those who like the great sweet wines of Bordeaux, this is gorgeous. This classed growth Sauternes from 2017 contains a heady mix of exotic fruit aromas with a full but fresh honeyed sweetness on the palate and an extraordinarily long finish. It is a masterpiece that will develop over several more years yet.

22.90€   £19.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Riesling Geisberg, Grand Cru, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2013
Grand Cru Alsace production is tiny – with low yielding vines of the highest quality. This is a delectable, dry fruity Riesling that makes really refreshing drinking. Probably best served with a meal, this is an impressive wine by any standards but at this price, it’s also a bargain.

22.90€   £19.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Chablis Premier Cru, La Fourchaume, Maurice Tremblay, 2020
This Premier Cru is packed full of fruit, in a Chablis sort of way! The vines are aged between 25 and 45 years and the wine is made in the traditional way by this producer - not oaked at all. As soon as you put your nose to the glass, you can tell there is something special to come – and the flavour does not disappoint. This will keep happily another five years at least. A gorgeous wine.

22.90€   £19.10

  BOTTLE Qty:

Rully, Les Villeranges, Domaine Faiveley (Burgundy), 2019
The highly reputed house of Faiveley is one of Burgundy’s best and most reliable winemakers. This superior wine from the village of Rully is really very elegant, and has a lovely complexity of fresh mineral flavours backed by a light oaking. Not expensive for such a very high quality – and absolutely delicious!

Pouilly-Fuissé, Premier Cru, Aux Bouthières,Domaine Pascal & Mireille Renaud (Burgundy), 2020
This wine is made from 100 year old vines in Aux Bouthières which is one of the best vine plots in Fuissé. The soil here gives an opulence of fruit combined with a minerality. Fermentation is in demi-muid large barrels and the juice is left on the lees for 18 months. This superb wine has just become legally entitled to call itself Premier Cru. This is simply magnificent Burgundy and, whilst fabulous now, it will get even better over the next 10 years.

24.40€   £20.30

  BOTTLE Qty:
Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc, Domaine Maldant-Pauvelot (Burgundy), 2020
Simply: a beautiful wine. It has a fuller flavour, that being typical of this village. With its lemony creamy character and a long aftertaste, this wine is delicious now but can also stay good for at least three years more.

24.70€   £20.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Saint-Aubin, Domaine Aymeric Mazilly (Burgundy), 2020

25.80€   £21.50

  BOTTLE Qty:
Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc, Domaine Jean Royer (Rhône), 2020

26.40€   £22.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Meursault, Les Meurgers, Domaine Mazilly (Burgundy), 2020
This is a great value wine from a single vineyard within the Meursault appellation, produced by a small family grower. Delicious to enjoy for another five years, this wine has the slightly "nutty" character, backed with a little oak, that we believe one should expect from a decent Meursault.

27.70€   £23.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc, Cuvée Tradition, Bosquet des Papes (Rhône), 2020
The blend of 45% Clairette, 35% Grenache Blanc and 20% Bourboulenc in stainless steel and then aged in new oak, has created here a lively fresh yet spicy and dry style, perfect to go with lighter meats such as chicken or summery foods. Serve well chilled for optimum enjoyment!

31.40€   £26.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gewürztraminer, Vendanges Tardives, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2018
Aromatic, sweet lusciously flavoured and even, with the taste of “noble rot”, this is not heavy but is a delight to savour at the end of your special meal. As with most decent quality sweet wines, if there should be any left in the bottle, put it back in the fridge and it will keep for several days – often weeks.

34.90€   £29.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Meursault, Les Grands Charrons, Domaine Philippe Bouzereau (Burgundy), 2020
Philippe Bouzereau at Château de Citeaux makes classic Meursault: smooth and slightly “nutty” in style. Grands Charrons is a lieu-dit alongside Pousse d’Or, a well respected Premier Cru. This high quality wine has a long life ahead and is truly impressive.

39.70€   £33.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Condrieu, Domaine de Bonserine (Rhône), 2020
2020 produced an early harvest with its warm summer. As a result this highly sought Condrieu has an opulence of fruit in the mouth, but it also has a freshness and slight minerality. The Viognier grapes are grown across three parcels of land over a total of one hectare.

42.00€   £35.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Chablis Grand Cru, Bougros, Domaine Billaud-Simon, 2015
A great wine from Billaud-Simon who make a softer style of Chablis whilst still retaining the minerality. With the additional benefit of some bottle age, this wine has a richness of flavour. Overall a rich and complex wine.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Combe de Madriel, Minervois, 2019

Ventoux, La Claretière, Pierre Amadieu (Rhône), 2020
For some time, we were searching for a decent Côtes du Ventoux at a sensible price. When these wines are good, they tend nowadays to be too expensive in our view. Otherwise they are mass-produced bland wines. However, here we have found a wine that is cherry red and full of gorgeous juicy succulent fruit. A delicious wine that offers fantastic value – well worth trying!

Fitou, Mont-Tauch (Fitou), 2018
The area of Fitou in the Languedoc makes its reds from Carignan, Grenache and Syrah - grapes that give soft generous flavours. An easy drinking, slightly spicy red that we'd suggest shows at its best when served with red meat or cheese. Leave this open for an hour and it develops a smooth silky texture.

La Circulade de Cabernet Sauvignon, Domaine Bassac, Vin de Pays des Côtes de Thongue, 2019
A wine that is full of firm Cabernet fruit that appears to have been softened in oak, to be almost soft and juicy. Yet there is no oak in this wine; the grapes have simply been picked at optimum maturity, giving ripe soft fruity flavours. We believe that this organic example will demonstrate to you just how a wine that is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon can still be deliciously fruity.

Les Cerises, Domaine Boissezon Guiraud (Saint-Chinian), 2020
Called “The Cherries” because the wine evokes the freshness of this fruit. This is one of the most attractive wines we have tasted from Saint-Chinian. There is a predominance of Syrah with almost equal measures of Grenache, Carignan and Cinsault grapes and the wine’s style is rich and fruity in flavour, without being heavy. With an attractive label, this is a really interesting wine that represents extra-ordinary value.

La Bette, Domaine Jeff Carrel (Côtes du Roussillon Villages), 2020
Stunning – this is a memorable wine. There is the label to start with, not that you should judge a wine that way, and then there is the rich brambly aroma.

This “table wine” is made by one of the top producers of Châteauneuf du Pape, Domaine Jean Royer from the same grapes and the same techniques but outside any appellation.

This wine is fruity and his wine making style may remind you of a fine red Burgundy. This is gorgeous – soft but with a richness that comes through on the palate. Fantastic value, and you could keep it at least another 5 years if you wanted.

Blason d’Issan, Margaux (Bordeaux), 2016 (2nd wine of Château d’Issan, 3ème Cru Margaux)

  IN WOODEN (12) CASE Qty:
La Closerie de Fourtet, Saint-Emilion (Bordeaux), 2017 (2nd wine of Clos Fourtet, Grand Cru Classé)
This is a fabulous wine and offers excellent value.  This “second wine” made from younger vines with less ageing than its “parent”, can be enjoyed now but with its ripe tannins, it can also be kept another five years easily.  Clos Fourtet is one of the handful of walled vineyards or “clos” remaining and its wine is 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc, making rich ripe wines that have been aged in new oak. Dark and intense wine – a particular favourite.  Will be good for another 10 years at least.

  IN WOODEN (6) CASE Qty:
Virginie de Valandraud, Grand Cru Saint-Emilion (Bordeaux), 2019 (2nd wine of Chateau de Valandraud, Grand Cru)
Chateau Valandraud was arguably put on the map by one Robert Parker in the US. Since that time it fetches silly prices but without question this is great wine and even in this “richer” year this specific wine offers excellent value.

38.40€   £32.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Chambolle-Musigny, Les Nazoires,Domaine Boursot Père & Fils (Burgundy), 2018
This excellent wine contains all the characteristics that have made Chambolle unique and highly sought. Contrary to other reds from the Cote de Nuits, Chambolle wines should be soft and fragrant and as they age, they become slightly richer and rounder in style. This is excellent Chambolle without some of the crazy prices being charged by some of the more “trendy” growers.

Côte Rôtie, La Sarrasine, Domaine de Bonserine (Rhône), 2019
Cote Rotie is one of those unusual wines that mixes red and white grapes – here 97% Syrah and 3% Viognier. This is a rich powerful wine and it has been awarded several prizes, from among others The Wine Spectator and Robert Parker. Fabulous with grilled meat.

Connétable Talbot, Saint-Julien (Bordeaux), 2016 (2nd wine of Château Talbot, 4ème cru)

  IN WOODEN (6) CASE Qty:
Château Boyd-Cantenac, 3ème cru Margaux (Bordeaux), 2019
Quite a dense wine, full of fruit and tannin to keep this Cabernet based wine good over decades. Its vines, across 17 hectares, produce up to 90,000 bottles a year. The Irish Boyd family acquired this château in 1754 but for the last 90 years it has been owned by the Guillemet family.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Vosne-Romanée, Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Boursot Père & Fils (Burgundy), 2020
The wines from this village in the Côte de Nuits are usually of a richer style of Pinot Noir and are becoming so difficult to buy owing to strong demand. This wine made from older vines is excellent, full of fruit and has the potential to last until 2040 at least. Although we say it ourselves, Boursot’s wines are being made better with each passing year: watch this producer.

52.40€   £43.70

  IN WOODEN CASE Qty:
Château Montus, Prestige (Madiran), 2002
This is a rarity made by Alain Brumont from 30 year old 100% Tannat that is then aged in new oak over 16 months.

Each bottle is in individual wooden box – the perfect present for a winelover.

  IN WOODEN (6) CASE Qty:
Pommard, Premier Cru, Clos des Boucherottes, Domaine Coste-Caumartin (Burgundy), 2019
Coste-Caumartin has the monopoly of this Clos in prime Pommard country. The wine in 2019 has a juiciness of delicate Pinot Noir fruit while it also has an underlying richness. Pommard wines are famed for their more structured style and so this wine will be great over the next 10 years.

57.90€   £48.20

  IN WOODEN (6) CASE Qty:
Château Batailley, 5ème cru Pauillac (Bordeaux), 2015
Nowadays this château is producing astoundingly good wine. It is classic richer style Pauillac - full, rich and soft and can be reliably chosen for special occasions. Probably better to lay (it!) down for a few years.

66.40€   £55.30

  BOTTLE Qty:
Corton-Bressandes, Grand Cru, Domaine Philippe Bouzereau (Burgundy), 2019
Grand Cru Burgundy has become astronomically expensive in recent years. The hill of Corton is the producer of some of Burgundy’s most sought after Grand Cru wines.

70.70€   £58.90

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gevrey-Chambertin, Premier Cru, La Combe aux Moines, Domaine Faiveley (Burgundy), 2015

78.60€   £65.50

  BOTTLE Qty:
Clos Vougeot, Grand Cru, Domaine Boursot Père & Fils (Burgundy), 2019
This wine is just opening up, being a longer term wine from a “richer” style of vintage. This stylish Grand Cru is elegant and has a lovely alluring delicate fruity aroma with a richness on the palate. It should be good for another 20 years.

ROSE WINES

  BOTTLE Qty:
Le Petit Pont, Réserve, Rosé, Vin de Pays d'Oc, 2021
Grenache and Cinsault are the two grapes that have gone into the making of this refreshing rosé.

SPARKLING WINE & CHAMPAGNE

  BOTTLE Qty:
Charles de Fère, Tradition Chardonnay, Brut
For the price, or even at any price, this is a lovely wine with its delicate honeyed fruity aromas. In our view, it is better than so many cheap champagnes.
