  • Not to be missed is the enticing selection of Burgundy from top producers include Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, Armand Rousseau etc
  • Bordeaux from the best vintages over the last 3 decades remain a stable and popular choice, given the consistency in quality and great ageing potential
