Description

The 2021 vintage of our Extra Ordinary Claret comes from Château Villa Bel-Air, an estate in the southern Graves region on the Left Bank of Bordeaux. Known affectionately as “EOC”, this is the big sibling to our flagship Good Ordinary Claret. It has a little more structure and concentration than you’ll find in our “GOC”.

Tasting note

Our Extra Ordinary Claret is a classic red Bordeaux blend of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc. The nose is expressive and pure, displaying a delicate bouquet of red fruits. The palate is nicely focused and layered; ripe flavours of red cherry and blackcurrant are held in check by very fine and smooth tannins. There is a harmonious balance between concentration, structure and freshness, making a great pairing with most hearty, savoury dishes.
