This red wine has the musician Tom Waits written all over it. Apparently, some of his instruments enjoy a nice claret (See above to the musical choice bit) so a magnum size would be perfect. This is a brooding Bordeaux drenched in black currant, blueberry flavours, fine-grained tannins and a brush of tobacco. Intense, expressive and offset by a gentle elegance- just like Mr. Wait's words. This wine's grapes are grown in the gravelly soils of Pessac-Léognan. Otherwise knowns as 'Graves'. Which again suits Tom's deep, gritty sonorous voice... or sometimes his song's subject matter. If Wait's isn't present to entertain, we'd recommend sampling this red, listening to Rain Dogs or Bone Machine and getting creatively cognitive with friends (trying hard not to use the word 'arty').


Chateau La Garde is located on the fine gravel soils of the Pessac-Léognan appellation, Bordeaux, France. The Chateau's origins begin in the 18th century, bulit in 1732 and first appearing on maps in 1756. Initially family owned by the Blanchards then followed by the Lacostes. After the first world war the wine negociant Eschenauer controlled the property. Their current owners, the progressive Bordeaux business Dourthe took La Garde's reigns in 1990. Producing classic reds and the new revived Bordeaux whites. This rising star in the Graves area commands a moderate sized property of 47 hectares that contain Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc grapes and a small amount of Sauvignon Gris.
