Why do we love this case?
If you are ever eyeing off a true 'unicorn wine' - something in the vein of Cheval Blanc or Petrus, then you're going to be shopping in Bordeaux and, specifically, the Right Bank of Bordeaux, among the giants of the global vino landscape. The Right Bank's preference for merlot dominant blends over cab sauv dominant blends makes for wines that are luxurious, rich and powerful.
Included in this case:
1x Château Mongravey Margaux 2018
Red — Cabernet Blend
Bordeaux — France
This Bordeaux, hailing from the Margaux appellation, is a cab-merlot blend with a touch of cab franc and a whole lotta charm. With a massive 97 points from DWWA, it’s an awesome expression of the area and anyone who loves Margaux will love this.
This wine is fresh and elegant, with the right amount of tannin soaking up delicious plum fruit. It’s juicy, full of red and black fruits and will go down an absolute treat with any of your favourite meats. Grab it for a special dinner with a special someone (or anyone really). It’ll please ’em all.
You’d pay $140 full price.

Tasting Notes
1x Château De Braude Haut Médoc 2015
Red — Cabernet Blend
Bordeaux — France
Château de Braude (owner and operated by Château Mongravey) has created a truly impeccable wine here. Rich and fruity, dark and dense, it’s a juicy drop that’s “firmly tannic with both wood and fruit,” according to Wine Enthusiast's rave review. Blackberry and plum form the core of this wine, which is classic and typical in all the right ways. It doesn't stop playing all the Bordeaux hits there, either; cedar, tomato leaf, rich wet earth, tobacco - this is a certifiable regional masterclass. Epic wine with the right (and, for Bordeaux of this style, borderline necessary) amount of age.
You’d pay $80 full price.

1x Chateau Dasvin Bel Air Haut-Médoc Cabernet Blend 2011
Red — Cabernet Blend
Bordeaux — France
Marked ruby tobacco and sweet smoke at the fore, with herby, savoury complexity sitting in behind that. There is still fruit generosity in the mix; plums and briary fruits with spicy nettle, too. Some earthy decay and cedar provide a perfect frame for that ripe, developed fruit profile. While this wine will continue to cellar well, it's drinking perfectly now, so don't wait - dig in.
You’d pay $95 full price.

1x Château Hauts de Granget Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2019
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
We’re getting pretty good at finding exceptional Bordeaux at unbelievable pricing. Humble, I know. But sometimes it’s good to give yourself a little pat on the back. We think we earned it with this one. It’s Saint-Emilion Grand Cru composed of 85% merlot and 15% cab franc that’s hitting all the right notes. And we’re not the only ones that feel that way. A score of 4.2 on Vivino and 96 points with a gold medal from the Decanter World Wine Awards seem to back up our assessment. The Decanter review below goes into a bit more detail for those remaining unconvinced.

1x Château Capet Duverger Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2019
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
Château Capet Duverger is the perfect example of a co-op driven wine success story in France. This Grand Cru from Saint-Emilion is of course led by merlot with the remaining fruit being cabernet sauvignon. The grapes are fermented in a gravity-flow winery before being put to rest in 20% new French oak for 12 months. It’s ripe, approachable, spicy and lengthy. Plum and blackberry lead the way with notes of leather, mushroom, vanilla and caramel adding complexity. Like many of the more modern Right Bank wines, this can be enjoyed now, but would also benefit from more time in the cellar.
You’d pay $78 full price.

1x Château Moulin Noir Montagne Merlot Blend 2014
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
It is Merlot and Cabernet Franc's domain on the Right-bank of Bordeaux and they deliver serious quality often at a fraction of the price compared to their siblings across the river. These wines command time in the bottle to develop and really shine and what a joy it is to buy wines that have already had the painstaking, patience enduring, hard work already done. No need to slap your hand away from the wine fridge for this one, it is ready to go.
You’d pay $70 full price.
