Bordeaux. There is a comfort that only a “good claret” can provide, you could even define it as the original hug-in-a-glass that fulfils our deepest oenological desires.

A timeless region that has produced classic and ethereal wines for almost two millennia. Wines that have captured the hearts and minds of the British ever since the marriage of Henry Plantagenet & Eleanor of Aquitane in 1152.

It is for these compelling reasons that throughout September we invite you on a whistle-stop tour of this iconic region.
