1 THE FINEST WINES OF BORDEAUX Includes an exclusive 1996 first growth mixed case, and 2001 ten years on TCMAR11 thewinesociety.com/bordeaux
2 The publication of a delightful and highly informative new book by James Lawther MW, The Finest Wines of Bordeaux, has coincided with our Bordeaux offer this year, which includes several of the fine Clarets we and he regard most highly. For hedonistic pleasure, there is a wonderful collection of 2001 vintage wines, many of which are now in regrettably short supply. Also for drinking now, there is an eclectic mix from left and right banks, including magnums of Pey La Tour, Happy surprises come in the quality, drinkability and potential of our 2007 vintage selections, a year not to be overlooked, and we revisit the great 2005 vintage in the form of Bordeaux s finest second wines. All this topped by an exquisite 1996 first growth mixed case. James s book is available to buy here, or you can receive a free copy by purchasing the The Finest Wines of Bordeaux Mixed Case featured on page 5. Some of the beautiful photography by Jon Wyand which illustrates the book is used throughout this offer. Joanna Locke MW, Society Buyer FIRST GROWTHS: 1996 VINTAGE MIXED CASE The early growing season was excellent in 1996, with optimal conditions for the grapes. August was gloomy but then the sun came back in September. It was a year that favoured cabernet sauvignon-based wines, the best of which show the grape at its finest. They are balanced wines, with great complexity, length of flavour and staying power. Starting to open up now, these still have a long life ahead. A Trio of 1996 First Growths A three-bottle case containing a bottle of each of the following: ref TC-MX1165 at 2,950 One case per member Château Lafite, 1996, Pauillac 84% cabernet sauvignon, full and with lovely silky, long-lasting flavour.

Members can order the book at the special price of if ordered with wine, or 15, if ordered separately (including UK P&P), or receive one free of charge with The Finest Wines of Bordeaux Mixed Case, on page 5. ref TC-BO647 2
3 2001: A DELICIOUS VINTAGE TO ENJOY NOW Overshadowed by the much-lauded millennium vintage which preceded it, 2001 proved to be a great year for merlot and the right bank, and, although slightly more challenging on the left bank, it has turned out to be a lovely Claret vintage, and the wines are already delicious. Château Les Ormes de Pez, 2001, Saint-Estèphe Ormes de Pez is owned by the Cazes family of Lynch Bages and managed as professionally as all their properties.
