Named after the turrets that embellish the château, Les Tourelles de Longueville is the second wine of Château Pichon Baron and embodies the charm of the estate. The grapes used in this wine’s blend are primarily from the Sainte Anne plot, mostly planted with Merlot, giving it a distinctive personality and it is the best introduction to the Pichon Baron spirit.
Luma offers handmade wines selected from the best lots of InVina’s extensive vineyards, fermented in small tanks, then aged in barrel for 12 months. Where power meets elegance.
The grapes for this Estate Bottled wine come from Las Tizas Estate and El Peral Estate. Splendid rich red fruit flavors tinged with clove and cinnamon.
In Arsac in the heart of the Margaux appellation, Château du Tertre overlooks a single holding vineyard of 52 hectares. The property, situated on one of the highest hills in the Médoc is composed of gravel, clay and sand. It was during the XIXth century that the wines acquired international renown, amplified by the 1855 classification which established the property as a 5th Growth.
Margaux by Tertre is a nice introduction to the wines produced by Château du Tertre.
The viticulture and vinification are carried out with the same high level of quality. Margaux by Tertre is mainly produced from the
young vines of Château du Tertre giving the wine a very fruity style, with a nice smoothness and roundness.
Mes 5 Pépites by Bernard Magrez is a unique micro-blend of barrels selected by world-famous Michel Rolland from Bernard Magrez’s five top chateaux: Pape-Clement Grand Cru Classé (Pessac-Leognan), La Tour Carnet Grand Cru Classé (Haut-Médoc), Les Grands Chênes (Médoc), Fombrauge Grand Cru Classé and Magrez Fombrauge Grand Cru Classé (Saint-Émilion).
Imagine iconic Château Pape-Clement in an innovative super blend with Chateau Magrez Fombrauge from St-Émilion. And completed with barrels rolled in from three other top chateaux at Bernard Magrez!
“My ambition for the exceptional…crafted from the blend of five jewels of our wine heritage – Château Pape Clément, La Tour Carnet, Fombrauge, Les Grands Chênes, and Magrez Fombrauge – it reflects the perfect union of five unique terroirs, where each vineyard contributes its own singularity.” – Bernard Magrez
Opus One is the realized dream of two men: Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux and Napa Valley vintner Robert Mondavi. Together, our founders set out to create a single wine dedicated to the pursuit of uncompromising quality. This singular mission shapes every vintage, today and for generations to come.
The “Opus One” is the result of a careful selection of the best Cabernet Sauvignon bunches, which are combined with small percentages of other varieties of Bordeaux origin. It matures in new oak barrels for about 17 months. The result is a red wine of incredible depth and elegance. Long and enveloping, it probably represents the best that California wine has been able to express for decades.
It was in 1981 that the Marquis Lodovico Antinori, cousin of Piero Antinori, founded the Ornellaia Estate, in the heart of the Bolgheri area, a few kilometers from the Mediterranean coast. Thus, with the first harvest of 1985, what would become an icon among the SuperTuscans was born: the “Ornellaia”. With the inauguration of the company, the world-famous enologist, Michel Rolland, begins to deal with the technical part of the cellar. Subsequently, in the 90s the other two labels were born: “Le Volte” and “Le Serre Nuove”.
Ornellaia is a blend of nature and musing. Complex ancient soils converse through human wisdom with a delicate microclimate that is echoed and reflected in the Mediterranean Sea. Prolonged ageing accompanies the estate’s fine wine in achieving its utmost expression, revealing finesse and generosity over time.
“This is a powerful, intriguing and mysterious Ornellaia. The wine does not reveal all the facets immediately in the glass, but envelop the palate with a curiosity to discern the nuances over time.” – Olga Fusari
Casa Santos Lima was created to ensure the continuous development of Santos Lima’s wine producing activity created several generations ago. This activity was first started by Joaquim Santos Lima, who, by the turn of 19th century, was already a great producer and exporter of Portuguese wines. Still a family owned company, today is present in the regions of Lisboa, Algarve, Alentejo, Vinho Verde and Douro.
Porta do Monte is a genuine wine expressing all the authenticity of the region. The deep violet colour reveals rich aromas, with combined dark fruit and floral notes.
Brioso means “a fervent love of challenge” and expresses a passionate spirit to create a wine that reaches the most sublime quality. Refined and elegant, this blend is the result of the combination of my oenological skills and knowledge and the uniqueness of Agrelo, one of the best terroirs in Argentina.
Susana Balbo is regarded as Argentina’s finest female winemaker, and this Brioso is a great wine which showcase her talents. It’s consistently good quality year on year with recent vintages aiming to be more European in style, less fruit driven and more traditional Bordeaux.
