2025, Château Montlandrie, CASTILLON CÔTES DE BORDEAUX6o% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. The Ctes de Castillon vineyard was very much a "labour of love" of famous Pomerol winemaker Denis Durantou of Eglise Clinet. The 2025 Montlandrie is exceptional. A wine of dimension and energy, Montlandrie screams with energy. Blue black cherry fruit, lavender, spice and grilled herbs possess notable density and sheer power. There's crazy depth and overall complexity here. I would love to taste

enabling more precise parcel selection—an evolution that appears to reinforce the wine’s precision and coherence

Harvested on the clay-limestone soils of Grand Village

Top quality Saint Julien has been produced here since the late 1980s when it was bought by the Suntory group of Japan

92-94 Neal Martin

tangy acidity and concentrated ripe fruit - it’s forward and intense

Polished and well-structured red with a medium body and firm but creamy and broad tannins

pretty red cherry fruit

the maiden vintage under the new team

is the 2024 Léoville Las Cases

High acidity fills the mouth giving succulent and juicy red and black fruit flavours
