M DE MOULIN RICHE, 2016

"This is the second wine of Château Moulin Riche which is the same ownership as nearby Château Léoville Poyferré. Creamy aromas mixed with red and darker fruits, specially blackberry - full flavoured with good fruit density and ripeness. Dried berries appear on the mid palate and linger on the finish. My top wine recommendation for this week."

PAVILLON DE POYFERRÉ CHÂTEAU DE LÉOVILLE POYFERRÉ, 2018

"The 2nd wine of Ch Léoville Poyferré and still young so perhaps decant it, or better to lay it down for a couple of years. Aromas of violets and dark spicy fruits, creamy silky blackcurrants hit first, next some chewy tannins but with the ripe fruit holding its own - concentrated, mouth filling, dense and pure with good complexity and length.
