Chateau Penin Clairet, Bordeaux
Deliciously fresh with attractive aromas and flavours of raspberries.
The Carteyron family have been making wine at this estate since 1854 and Patrick Carteyron is the 5th generation to take the 40 hectares of vines in hand. The estate is fortunate to sit on soils that are basically composed of deep gravels, glacial deposits, which force the vines to work hard, sticking their roots down deep in search of water and nutrients and in the process delivering more complex flavours in the grapes. Enthusiasm for his subject matter drives Patrick into making simple Clairet that punches above its weight.

Château de Crecy, Bordeaux Rouge
Claret for lunch? Why not? Soft blackcurrant fruit; an attractive earthy finish. Great with steak & kidney.
Merlot, Casa Rivas, Chile
Soft, rich, hedonistic South American Merlot for midweek drinking with char-grilled steak or roast beef.
