Chateau La Rose Bouquey Six Pack

A stunning deal! With global demand for Bordeaux down – even the grandest châteaux are crying out to clear space. Château La Rose Bouquey in the heart of Saint-Émilion itself, owned and run by the Bentenat family. It abuts two world-famous estates – home to $850+-a-bottle Château Pavie and $300+-a-bottle Château Larcis-Ducasse. It shares the same all-important hallowed soils, and its top release, also a Merlot-led, Right-bank Grand Cru red, usually is priced at a much more modest $70 a bottle. That’s under normal circumstances.In the face of a potentially crippling glut in supply and an overflowing cellar, winemaker David Bentenat reached out to trusted friends. Step in our very well-connected wine buyer and winemaker extraordinaire, Jean-Marc Souboua. Could he please help by taking some stock of the excellent, 2022 vintage – at a very special price? 50% off. That's a saving of $35 off a bottle! The answer was an emphatic ‘Oui!’ 2022 enjoyed a long Summer of glorious sunshine and “produced some genuinely unbelievable wines that are worthy of hyperbole” (Decanter magazine). What does it taste like? Ask Jean-Marc. “Wow! I’d rub this on my chest! Deep ruby in the glass, it opens with ripe plum, blackberry and gorgeous lingering oak spice. Silky and rounded on the palate, with fine tannins and that unmistakeable Saint-Émilion elegance.” Buy 6 and save $210. Fine Saint-Emilion is one of the world’s great wine treasures, and one we think you should take advantage of if you possibly can – and feel virtuous for helping to save an absolute gem of a family estate.
