St Emilion, Premier Grand Cru Classe

The 1975 Château Pavie from Saint-Émilion comes from a vintage that was solid overall in Bordeaux. The 1975 vintage was notable for its high tannin levels, and many wines from this year have a firm structure, making them suitable for long-term aging. The 1975 Château Pavie was produced before the estate underwent significant modernization and investment in the late 1990s, under the ownership of Gérard Perse, which transformed Pavie into one of Saint-Émilion’s top estates. As such, the 1975 is a product of a more traditional winemaking approach, with less concentration and polish than modern vintages. …

Finest Reserve Tawny Port, DOC Douro

Tawny Port is made from premium blends of wines, sourced from the best vineyards that have been aged for years in oak casks.

Fratelli Berteletti

The 1975 Fratelli Berteletti Gattinara is a beautifully aged expression of Nebbiolo from the northern Piedmont region. Over the years, it has developed a complex and refined profile. Expect aromas of dried red cherries, rose petals, leather, and earthy truffle, with subtle notes of tobacco, tar, and balsamic undertones. The tannins, once firm, have softened gracefully, creating a smooth, well-integrated texture, while the acidity remains fresh, ensuring balance. A classic, mature Gattinara with depth and elegance.

Vintage Port
Port Buyers recommendation

1975 was a declared vintage and the vintage ports have a lighter style. The 1975 Sandeman is well above average, represents good value and has a good provenance. It is a pale ruby colour. Morello cherries, black berries and liquorice on the nose which has a slightly roasted quality. Slightly treacle like on the palate, with notes of honey and mocha. A fairly light, sweet style at this point. Good medium-long finish. Will hold for a few more years" Dr T Carter notes from Sandeman V20 Tasting London 2014.
