2018 is vibrant from the first nose thanks to its brilliant fruit. An aromatic explosion that mingles aromas of cherries with delicious notes of marzipan ... Minty notes of cedar and rose provide a burst of freshness. Carried by this ethereal balance, the wine then reveals its depth and density. It is full-blooded and full-bodied, yet always elegant. The palate is broad, the tannins refined and silky. It possesses the delectable tangy sweetness of a Bakewell tart. This 2018 shows all the power and grace of a prima ballerina, lost in her art.
Yellow-gold and limpid, it has very fine bubbles of great finesse, characteristic of wines having a lot of elegance. On the nose, the wine displays peach and honey flavours followed by white flowers, butter and brioche notes. On the mouth, white flowers and developing citrus notes that bring freshness to this wine. This Premium Reserve Brut Premier Cru is the most eclectic of Charles Mignon range. It is particularly appreciated in aperitif, during receptions or still to accompagny a meal.
"Very rich dark berries and plums with an attractive and deep, fresh-fruit edge. The palate has a very smooth, fresh and sweetly fruited core with ripe, plush and approachable tannins. A blend of 81 per cent merlot, 13 per cent cabernet franc and six per cent petit verdot. Try from 2020." James Suckling

2nd Label of Château Nénin
This second wine is the expression typical of the charm of Pomerol. Fugue is a reference to the musical universe; it is a repetition of the main theme. This interpretation makes sense at the tasting, so much Fugue agrees with the tones of its elder while offering an entertaining and seductive expression.

Rose petal pink in colour, with persistent mousse and a chain of fine bubbles. Fresh and generous nose with intensely complex aromas of red fruit, wild cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry. The generosity of Pinot Noir and the freshness of Chardonnay create perfect balance and aromas of delicate red fruit. A finish of superb persistence and softness.
The style of Clos Beauregard is marked by the succulence and roundness of the Merlot grape. The mouth is persistent with aromas of bilberry jam and vanilla, while the end note is delightfully balanced and elegant and suggests good ageing potential. This is a cru full of body and charm.

Discreet and elegant nose which opens up with airing to reveal succulent aromas of brandied morello cherries mingled with peppery, minty notes. From a substantial and powerful attack, the mid-palate reveals a close-knit, creamy texture set off by well-integrated, structured tannins. The succulence hinted at on the nose is expressed in black fruit and mocha notes, leading into an opulent finish which underlines the wine’s complexity.
The nose is already very present and powerful, with notes of ripe and fresh fruits such as burnt cherry and pomegranate. In mouth, the attack is ample with a beautiful intensity. A wine of a beautiful power while remaining very greedy and round. The fresh woody taste, well blended, expresses itself on notes of praline pastry. The finish is long and expresses all its potential with a lot of brightness.

A pale yellow color. An elegant and delicate nose with white fruit (peach) and citrus fruit notes. Lively and fresh on the palate combining acidity and minerality.
Its mellow gold hue is a sign of its ageing. Its mousse is delicate and its bubbles extremely fine. A rich, intense nose with a wide aromatic palette encompassing yellow fruit, pear and Mirabel plum, almond, hazelnut and white blossom, such as acacia, with a honeyed, toasted touch. The attack is forthright and elegant. It has a purity style that marries the structure and the texture of Pinot Noir with the balance and the freshness of Chardonnay. Perfect balance and immense length.
An echo of the First Wine's character, Château Lynch Bages.
Like its big brother, Echo de Lynch-Bages displays the characteristic taste, aromas and length of Pauillac wines. As an echo of the first wine, it receives the same care and attention from the vine to the cellars. It is the result of a selection of Lynch-Bages' youngest vines and specific plots which represent between 25 to 40 % of the harvest depending on the vintage. Echo de Lynch-Bages, the second wine of the estate, displays savoury aromas of fresh red fruits. Round, mellow and seductive in its youth, its ability to age is outstanding.
