Château Giscours 2025

There are few estates in Bordeaux that have quietly elevated their standing as convincingly as Château Giscours.

The newly released 2025 vintage is a testament to that evolution. Combining the elegance of Margaux with remarkable depth, freshness, and precision, Château Giscours 2025 captures the confidence of an estate operating at its peak.

A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc, the wine offers vibrant dark fruit, floral lift, refined tannins, and a finish that lingers with grace and complexity.

With 97-98 point scores from James Suckling and Yves Beck, critics are already recognising what collectors have come to expect: Giscours continues to deliver some of the most compelling wines in Bordeaux.

Château Figeac 2018

A remarkable expression from Saint-Émilion, this vintage is crafted from 37% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 30% Cabernet Franc. Produced from vineyards averaging 35 years of age and rooted in deep Médoc-like gravel soils, Château Figeac continues to stand apart with a profile that combines structure, precision, and finesse.

Expect rich fruit, refined tannins, and impressive concentration, supported by freshness and balance throughout. Described by Frédéric Faye as “more crystalline and focused,” this vintage reflects the exceptional 2018 growing season, delivering purity, depth, and a long, elegant finish. A bottle worthy of both collectors and those seeking a distinguished tasting experience.

Perfect alongside roast lamb, grilled meats, and classic dishes that complement its richness and structure. Whether added to a collection or enjoyed for a special occasion, this vintage offers a refined expression of Saint-Émilion with remarkable ageing potential in every pour.

Château Léoville Barton 2025 is officially released today.

In a Bordeaux campaign where precision and restraint have defined the very best wines, Léoville Barton has delivered a Saint-Julien that feels unmistakably true to its identity. Classical in style yet impressively refined, the 2025 combines freshness, structure and purity in a way that should appeal to both long-term collectors and lovers of traditional Left Bank Bordeaux.

The Barton family’s consistency over generations is once again on full display here. Despite the challenges of the growing season, the estate has produced a wine with remarkable balance and composure — layered dark fruits, fine tannins and the quiet confidence that has made Léoville Barton one of the Médoc’s most dependable names.

Critics have already singled it out as one of the highlights of the vintage. Neal Martin awarded the wine 95–97 points, while Antonio Galloni praised both its depth and serious ageing potential, calling it one of his early favourites of the campaign.

With its reputation, pricing history and long-term collectability, Léoville Barton is likely to become one of the key value releases of Bordeaux 2025. Please let us know if you would like to secure an allocation.

The 2025 Château Lafite Rothschild releases are now available.

The 2025 Lafite Rothschild is already being hailed as one of the standout wines of this year’s Bordeaux En Primeur campaign, delivering remarkable precision, layered graphite-driven complexity, and exceptional harmony. Antonio Galloni described it as “powerful and explosive in the glass,” while Neal Martin called it “a brilliant wine” destined to age with extraordinary grace.

Alongside it, Carruades de Lafite continues its rise as one of Bordeaux’s most compelling second wines. Galloni praised the 2025 as “a total stunner,” highlighting its brisk acidity, floral lift, and classic Lafite notes of lavender, rose petal, graphite, and spice.

With Lafite once again producing wines of exceptional quality, these releases are expected to attract significant attention from collectors worldwide.

Golden brilliance from Sauternes

One of the standout sweet wines of the 2025 Bordeaux En Primeur campaign, 2025 Château Suduiraut once again proves why it remains a benchmark for the region. Crafted entirely from Sémillon, this vintage delivers remarkable richness balanced by striking freshness and precision.

Awarded 96–98 points by Neal Martin, who praised its “killer line of acidity” and noted that despite its 158g/L residual sugar, it “feels light on its toes.”

With extremely low yields across Sauternes in 2025, wines of this calibre are unlikely to stay available for long.

2025 Château Suduiraut is offered as Sauternes 1er Cru Classé and stands as one of the most compelling sweet wine opportunities from the vintage.
