Xavier Milhade Wines Château Recougne 2019
Bordeaux Superieur
February 17, 2026 - Legend has it that Château Recougne earned its name in “recognition” by Henri IV in the early 1600s. Wine has been made here for 400 years, yet the estate feels more relevant than ever. As Bordeaux shifts toward freshness and balance, Recougne has quietly stayed the course, producing pure, energetic wines with red and black fruit and earthy complexity. Bottles from the 1950s and ’60s still drink beautifully. Today, fourth-generation winemaker Marc Milhade carries the torch, focusing on vineyard work and maintaining a low-intervention approach in the cellar.

E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2019
Côtes du Rhône
February 17, 2026 - E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône Rouge is a standout in its class, made with the same rigor and care as the estate’s top wines. Unusually Syrah-based, it offers greater depth, structure, and aromatic intensity than most wines in the category. It is aged for two years in a mix of stainless steel and large oak foudres, with deliberate blending throughout the process to ensure balance and complexity. This is not just a regional ambassador—it is a wine that reflects Guigal’s commitment to excellence at every level. It is a benchmark bottle and an extraordinary value.
