The L&S buyers source their bargain of an own-label Bordeaux from a small estate new Gensac in Entre-deux-Mers. It's soft and supple, with just the right amount of gentle oak char to support its fruit flavours - juic...(read more)

From a good vintage and always delivering incredible value for money, Eric Duffau's brilliant Château Belle Garde is one of our longest standing listings. Leaf tea, cassis, plum and tobacco aromas are backed by a w...(read more)

So well balanced and elegant on the palate, this bargain from the 'Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux' appellation is a great new arrival on the shelves at L&S. The fruit dimension shines through with notes of strawberrie...(read more)
