At C&B we are Merlot mad. With so many great estates to choose from busting the bank on complete cases can sometimes be a nightmare. To help combat this we’ve put together this spectacular St-Emilion mixed case. St-Emilion is synonymous with high quality Merlot-dominant reds, typically rich and structured, with herbaceous elegance from Caberenet Franc and an idiosyncratic suaveness. We’ve bundled together four of our favourites to help scratch that St-Emilion itch. Annonce de Belair-Monange, second wine of the eponymous Moueix family flagship, is a close neighbour of Clos La Madeleine, whilst Peter Sisseck’s majestic Rocheyron and the tiny Clos St-Martin make for a brilliant overview of the commune.
