One of the top two estates in this southern Médoc appellation and widely viewed as being one of the best value on the left bank. In the late 1970s Baron Rothschild’s famously mistook the 1953 vintage for his own Lafite. "Poujeaux is a property to watch now that the Cuvelier family (the proprietors of the impressive St.-Emilion estate of Clos Fourtet) are running the show." Robert Parker

Andrew Davies' sparkling adaptation of Winifred Holtby's acclaimed novel Insightful, warm and full of memorable characters, South Riding tells a fraught love story and paints a panoramic portrait of a between-the-wars Yorkshire community. In depression-hit Thirties Britain, Sarah Burton returns from London to her Yorkshire hometown to take up the post of headmistress at a struggling girls' school. Full of ambition, she is determined to create a great school and inspire her girls. As Sarah struggles against the crippling poverty of the district, she meets those at the heart of the local community: her brilliant but poor student, Lydia Holly; the county's first woman Alderman, Mrs Beddows, whose sensible demeanour belies a girlish heart; the noble but ludicrous Methodist preacher, Councillor Huggins; Sarah's socialist suitor Joe Astell and the proud, haunted and almost ruined landowner, Robert Carne...
From the vineyards and home of Patick Léon - former winemaker at Mouton-Rothschild... "The 2016 Les Troix Croix is gorgeous. Sweet floral notes give the intense red and purplish-hued fruits lovely aromatic lift and presence. Powerful and very ripe , but not at all heavy, the 2016 stands out for its impeccable balance and class. Tasted three times." 89-91, Antonio Galloni "Another excellent Fronsac with blackberries, blueberries and cherries. Medium body, fine tannins and a structured finish" 90-91, James Suckling "The 2016 Les Trois Croix from proprietor Bertrand Léon has a gorgeous and very pure bouquet with black cherry and cassis fruit, well defined with light marine influence. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp acidity, moderate complexity with a gentle grip on the finish." 88-90, Neal Martin, robertparker.com
Pale gold in colour with lovely fresh, vibrant aromas of citrus and exotic, tropical fruit, peaches and apricots. Full and sweet on the palate with pure citrus and apricot flavours, notes of mint and spice and a great level of acidity which lifts the finish and ensures impeccable balance.
Tasting notes - Leather and spice of traditionally made Rioja on the nose. Smooth and subtle on the palate, with strawberries and vanilla ice cream sustained through to a long finish with well integrated tannins.
Bright golden straw in appearance. Clean and fresh aromas of dried apricot and honey with citrus notes of grapefruit. A rich and luscious palate of concentrated stone fruit and citrus flavours. Complex and balanced, the sweetness is complemented by the acidity, culminating in a refreshingly pleasant and lingering finish. The 2010 'The Nectar' is made from a select combination of our Coonawarra Riesling and balanced with selected parcels of Chardonnay, and Semillon from our Wilgha vineyard. The later part of the 2010 ripening period provided perfect conditions for the natural onset of Botrytis. Creeping its way throughout the entire vineyard and slowly dehydrating the berries, it produced the concentrated, incredibly sweet and flavourful fruit required for making a wine of this style. The fruit was carefully selected and harvested by hand. Gentle pressing and a long cool fermentation retained...
Ruby red, dense and impenetrable,it strikes intensely with a spicy note of licorice and tobacco leaf, opening onto ripe fruity hints. The taste combines the power of Sangiovese with the elegance of Merlot, pulpy and soft, with sustained freshness and soft tannins.

From the outstanding 2010 vintage and scoring 92+/100 Parker Points "As always, this estate has produced a blockbuster style of Margaux in 2010, with the more masculine side of the appellation providing density, power, big body, loads of fruit, extract and richness.
