6 bottles of Chateau Artigues Pauillac. The vintage is 2017, which is an outstanding vintage according to the Robert Parker Vintage Chart, receiving a 91/100-score. If Pauillac is classic Bordeaux, then Chateau Artigues is classic Pauillac. It’s equal parts cabernet sauvignon and merlot, and aged a year in a mix of tank and 25% new oak. Pauillac is known for its powerful wines that are mouthfilling and ageworthy – this will require a decanter for a year, but if you can keep your hands off it should provide terrific drinking for the next five. The nose is attractive and very dark, with oak melting carefully into the cassis and cherry fruit. The mouth is rich and concentrated, but not exuberant or showy – there’s plenty of definition and stony structure to keep this in line. The wooden case will be shipped to you in a protective packaging.
