Another fabulous vintage of our now well known and much loved Lea & Sandeman Bordeaux, which offers such great value. This is not a generic Bordeaux blend, but from a single property bought by two young 'negociants' we have worked with for some years. Deep fruit, bright tannins and fresh acidity. L&S (Jun 2011)

Congratulations to L&S – if anyone is making a better own-label claret I have yet to taste it. Fresh and alert, pin-prick precise, what I want to drink with a late lunch of cold roast meat or a smart kitchen supper. From the flatlands of Fronsac and worth laying in by the case. Superb. Victoria Moore, The Daily Telegraph (Dec 2012)
From vineyards close to Fronsac. Made by oenoloist Nicolas Dabudyk. Rich crimson. A little leafy but juicy too. Lively and good-value claret. Just a little dry on the finish. Rating: 16 Julia Harding MW, www.JancisRobinson.com (Nov 2012)
Supple and approachable, but with a little touch of astringency to remind us of its origins, this Merlot-dominant blend is a classic, old-school luncheon claret given a ripe-fruited modern update. The Wine Gang - www.thewinegang.com (Oct 2012)
