Bordeaux: Large and Very Large Formats

With the holidays rapidly approaching, I thought it would be useful to review our stocks of large-format Bordeaux; perhaps the largest selection available in the US.

1.5L Magnums
We have a couple of classic dry white options here: the excellent value Clarté de Haut-Brion 2018 and the always brilliant Ygrec from Yquem. Among the reds, our everyday option is Corbin, from St. Emilion; a 2016 vintage magnum for $70 is a no-brainer.

At a more elevated level, my picks would be Lynch-Bages 2018, Rauzan-Ségla 2020, and at the very top, Lafite 2020.

3L Double Magnums
Here we have some outstanding Right Bank options. From St. Emilion, Canon 2020 is a brilliant wine, chalky and succulent; Eglise-Clinet 2015 from an outstanding Right Bank vintage is joyous; and just down the road, Petrus 2017 is a masterpiece.

6L Imperial
We have a range of Bordeaux's top wines available here. From Pessac, Haut-Brion 2018; from Margaux, Palmer 2020; and finally, how about an imperial of Mouton-Rothschild? We have both 2019 and 2020.

...and even larger
From one of the region's top-performing properties, Figeac, we have both 15- and 18-liter bottles of 2018, and an 18-liter bottle of 2019. That's the equivalent of 24 bottles in one! On the Left Bank, we can offer the same two formats of Pauillac superstars, Pichon Baron and Pontet-Canet.
