The Chem. de Chantecaille is one of the most famous streets in France. If you have ever visited, it’s one that people go very slowly on so they can turn their heads constantly to get a glimpse of both sides of the road. The Chantecaille which leads through Saint-Emilion and Pomerol is home to some of the biggest names in all of wine, let alone just Bordeaux.
Chateau Petrus, Le Gay, Trotanoy, Lefleur… these are just some of the wineries sprinkled on this famous road. Most of these Chateau charge an arm and a leg (well over $100/btl to start with Petrus in the lead at nearly $4,800/btl). But only a few hundred yards away from Petrus along the very same street, sits a chateau where arguably the best bargains in the entire Right Bank are grown.
Chateau Gachon sits on 15 hectares of clay soils, close to the hamlet of Pomerol. Classified within the district of Montagne Saint-Emilion, the wines coming off this estate are classic Right Bank blends with elegance, structure and impeccable balance.

Winemaker Pascal Sirat consistently puts out some of the best value Bordeaux in the region but he may have outdone himself in what was a stellar 2019 vintage throughout the region. Just south of Pomerol, the vines at Panchille borrow deep in the soil. The resulting wines are ripe but fresh, with an aromatic complexity and stony finish usually reserved for wine twice the price. Daniel Boulud tells me it’s been the hottest bottle of wine at Bar Boulud for over a month, so I figured I’d better hurry up and secure my allocation! Don’t miss it.
90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
#24 Wine of the Year (2022), Wine Spectator
92 Points, Wine Spectator – 91 Points, James Suckling
“This supple red shows a core of cherry and plum fruit allied to olive, juniper and tobacco notes. Delivers well-integrated tannins and acidic structure, lingering nicely on the finish.”
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
