This is the wine that famously came sixth in a tasting involving some of the top Bordeaux wines.
The three medal positions went to: 2005 Château Lafite-Rothschild (£975 a bottle), 2005 Château Mouton-Rothschild (£675) and 2005 Château Angélus (£295). Just off the podium, in fourth, is 2006 Sacred Hill Helmsman.
Bright, strong, ripe blackberry and blackcurrant flavours with a strong overlay of classy French oak. An elegant, powerful wine that shows great promise. Certainly a step up on the previous vintage. A stylish Bordeaux blend that justifies its flagship status. 92/100 Bob Campbell Master of Wine

Deep ruby in colour, with oak and blackfruits on the nose. Lots of oak on the medium-full bodied palate too, with smooth tannins and texture, cassis, plums and tar. This has the fruit to continue to improve.
