There is perhaps no wine region more synonymous with prestige than Bordeaux. For centuries, the great châteaux lining the Gironde estuary have defined what the world understands as fine wine: structure, longevity, and a profound sense of place. From the gravel mounds of the Médoc to the limestone slopes of Saint-Émilion and the deep clay of Pomerol, Bordeaux built its reputation not on fashion, but on discipline—on blends crafted for balance and wines built to age gracefully for decades. And yet, for all its reputation as the world’s “richest” wine region, Bordeaux remains one of the most democratic. Beneath the First Growths and cult bottlings lies a vast landscape of estates producing wines at nearly every price point imaginable. One can open a modest cru bourgeois for a weeknight roast chicken or lay down a legendary bottle destined to outlive the collector. Few regions offer such range—where everyday pleasure and transcendent experience coexist within the same appellation system. That is Bordeaux’s true genius: it speaks to everyone. It can be intellectual and architectural or generous and immediate. It can be a quiet companion at dinner or the centerpiece of a life’s celebration. The wines listed below represent that spectrum—some powerful and monumental, others refined and aristocratic—but all unmistakably Bordeaux. Today’s small parcel offering is a testament to Bordeaux’s versatility.
Chateau Malescot St Exupery 2019 From Margaux in the Médoc, this Third Growth is a blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and small portions of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, fermented in temperature-controlled vats and aged in a high percentage of new French oak. The 2019 vintage benefits from warm, even ripening, giving both richness and polish. The wine shows cassis, violets, graphite, and silky tannins wrapped in Margaux perfume, finishing long and refined. Special Price $79.99 Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste 2019 Hailing from Pauillac, this Fifth Growth leans heavily on Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot support, aged traditionally in French oak barrels. The estate’s gravel soils give structure and clarity, and 2019 delivered superb balance and concentration. Expect blackcurrant, cedar, cigar box, and firm but noble tannins with a long, mineral finish. Special Price $119.99 Chateau Lynch Bages 2019 Also from Pauillac, Lynch-Bages blends predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, vinified parcel by parcel and matured in oak barrels. The 2019 is powerful yet controlled, reflecting the estate’s hallmark muscular style. It offers layers of blackberry, crushed stone, espresso, and tobacco, finishing with impressive depth and aging potential. Special Price $199.99 Chateau La Gaffeliere 2016 Located on the limestone slopes of Saint-Émilion, La Gaffelière blends Merlot and Cabernet Franc, vinified in stainless steel and aged in French oak. The exceptional 2016 vintage brought freshness and structure alongside ripe fruit. The wine reveals dark plum, floral lift, fine chalky tannins, and elegant precision through a persistent finish. Special Price $129.99 Chateau l'Evangile 2010 From Pomerol’s clay and gravel plateau, l’Evangile is primarily Merlot with Cabernet Franc, fermented in temperature-controlled vats and aged in French oak barrels. The monumental 2010 vintage endowed the wine with density and remarkable structure. It unfolds with black cherry, truffle, cocoa, and velvety yet powerful tannins that promise decades of evolution. Special Price $479.99 Chateau Haut Bailly 2009 Situated in Pessac-Léognan, Haut-Bailly blends Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, aged in French oak for refinement and longevity. The warm, generous 2009 vintage produced a wine of depth and sensual texture. Aromas of blackcurrant, smoke, earth, and subtle spice lead to supple tannins and a lingering, harmonious finish. Special Price $329.99 Chateau Palmer 2005 From Margaux, Palmer is known for its unusually high proportion of Merlot alongside Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, aged in carefully selected oak barrels. The legendary 2005 vintage delivered both power and classical structure.
