BYO Médoc Supper – with special guest Augustin Lacaille

For our latest themed BYO Supper we are pleased to be joined by Augustin Lecaille, representing three of the most exciting and best value châteaux on the left bank of Bordeaux: Lafon Rochet (St Estephe), Pedesclaux (Pauillac) and d’Issan (Margaux).

Lafon Rochet, called by Antonio Galloni “the most elegant wine in St Estèphe”, whose near neighbours include Cos d’Estournel to the east and Lafite to the south, has undergone significant investment since being purchased by the Lorenzetti family from Basile Tesseron in 2021, but the excellence of its terroir including blue clay rich soils which underpin the quality of its Merlot remain the same. Fifth Growth Château Pedesclaux lies directly between Mouton Rothschild and the Gironde river and is one of Pauillac’s true hidden gems, improving almost with every new vintage and offering a exceptional quality for its modest price. Finally we’ll taste d’Issan, one of Margaux’ most easterly châteaux, and one of Bordeaux’ oldest. This 3^rd Growth, previously served at the wedding Eleanor of Aquitaine and King Henry II, still flies slightly under the radar but a string of impressive years is ensuring that Médoc purists are really starting to take note.

Contact Beth to join us, with a bottle of your favourite claret, to discuss all things Bordeaux over a casual 3-course supper.
