Why do we love this case?
The St Émilion Gran Cru classification marks wines of excellence. This Gran Cru collection features wines of distinction that not only rise to the lofty expectations of their regionality but best them. 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. That's where St Émilion resides, 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, powerful, and (importantly) approachable in youth.

1x Château Hauts de Granget Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2018
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.

2x Chateau Galius Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2019
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
Let’s just say upfront, we’ve stocked up on this wine. In mofo history, we have never seen a wine fly out the door quite like this one. No exaggeration, never before has a wine been as loved by the mofo community.
This Grand Cru Saint-Emilion is rich and ripe and at a magical point in its life, drinking very, very well. It’s a stunning example of how Bordeaux terroir shines through the merlot grape in all its generosity and finesse, with a touch of cab franc (15%) adding fresh notes to all that fruit. Expect an abundance of plums, vanilla and milk chocolate. Forest floor and herbal undergrowth are hidden softly underneath - sage and oregano, tobacco leaf. Spice ekes in around my edges, with broad, silky tannin riding on a backbone of bright acidity and keen structure. You can rest assured that you are going to be drinking the top-of-the-top of Bordeaux here.

2x Château le Loup Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2020
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
If you’re the kind of wine buyer looking for the best wine at the best price, look no further. Saint-Émilion grand cru rarely ever starts at a price like this. Even we did a double take! With a super high average score among wine-loving Vivino users, it’s a ‘get it while it’s hot’ limited red. A classic right-bank blend of merlot and cabernet franc, expect an inky red in your glass. Plums and dark cherries intertwine with cedar, expanding with a richness that tapers to a classic finish. There is also an edge of earthy notes here, only found in wonderfully earnest Bordeaux. French oak and gravelly tannins, it has it all to keep you wanting more. Perfect to cellar, yet, even better to drink, after all, people say life is short. While we are here we may as well sip grand cru, live long and prosper. Château le Loup Saint-Émilion grand cru, we love you.
