Bordeaux Six

Notable wines here include Château Pey de Faure 2014 – 11 years old and drinking beautifully now. It’s from a 16th century estate where quality began to soar in 1989 when the celebrated Ballandes family bought it. Enjoy too the twice Gold-winning Château de la Grande Tour from the highly respected Christian Dumas, and the exquisite Château de Colombe from superlative value Castillon. In Le Bourg, winemaker Jean-Marc Sauboua challenges the rules and takes cuvées of delicious Merlot from two vintages – warm, ripe 2022 and the younger, fresh 2023. It’s therefore labelled as NV, but absolutely delicious. Save $50 and on a bottle of each.
