Bordeaux First Growths
The 1855 classification of Bordeaux wines grouped the Gironde châteaux into 5 different classes (crus classes) or growths. The Premier Crus Classés (First Growths) of Margaux, Latour, Mouton-Rothschild, Lafite Rothschild, Haut-Brion from Médoc, along with Sauternes' Premier Cru Supérieur D’Yquem are considered as the blue-chip stocks of the Bordeaux wine world.
In recent years certain estates from St.-Emilion and Pomerol have successfully challenged the traditional supremacy of the left bank châteaux: Without question, such estates as Ausone, Cheval Blanc (St Emilion Premiers Grands Crus Classés "A" ), Pétrus and Le Pin (Pomerol) are today making top-class, highly acclaimed wines and they are among the most collectible labels from Bordeaux.
Wines from the aforementioned top-flight châteaux are featured in the list below, a more extensive list of vintages may be obtained by contacting our Fine Wine Department (Tel: 44 (0) 1256 340123)

"Fullish colour. Full, rich, concentrated oaky nose. This is a profound wine. Backward. Substantial. Fullish, real depth here. This has real intensity even power. Fine ripe tannins. Long, backward but lush. Very fine". (Clive Coates January 2001) |

Excellent colour. Very, very lively. Not the most fragrant vintage of Cheval, but lovely texture. Very, very well balanced. Sumptuous texture and layers of dense flavour, but a chunky end. Quite chunky rather than mind-blowing. Inky tannins at the end. (Jancis Robinson - ... MORE |

With a phenomenal bouquet of exotic spices, coffee and intense blackcurrant, and a firm but incredibly ripe palate of great class, this Mouton clearly has few peers amongst the 1988 crop. The famous Baron Philippe de Rothschild died in January of this year, and this highly underrated wine is a ... MORE |

Sauternes has bucked the trend this year by enjoying higher than normal yields, but the drought thickened the skins of the grapes and thus made it harder for the much sought-after noble rot (botrytis) to take hold. However, the long, dry autumn allowed the growers to wait and, when the ...

Red,
Cab.Sauvignon Blend,
Ready, but will improve,

A deep opaque colour, heavy tannic black fruit flavours and striking vanilla overtones make this quite a cumbersome wine to taste in its youth. More importantly, the wine has depth and a very good intewnse structure, guranteeing it to be a classic for long-term ageing. |

A lavish wine of extraordinary complexity. Rich, hugely extracted, with masses of fat and glycerin. Plenty of over-ripe tropical fruits, smoky new oak and astonishing length. Will go on developing for half a century or more. |
