Sam Earl's Top 10 Clarets To Drink Now

Listed below are ten clarets that Sam Earl has picked based on drinking quality and not necessarily price, from the superb Chateau Meaume 2022 to the 100-point Chateau Figeac 2016, St Emilion that I first tasted several years ago at a Neal Martin masterclass. Beaumont 2016 is just a brilliant fine wine punching well above its weight, my declassified recommendations include Margaux Declassified 2023, and Pomerol Declassified 2022 tick all the boxes for quality and price from the greatest Chateaux. Segla 2016, Margaux and Batailley 2010, Pauillac are sensational wines. Moving up the ladder as far as price goes Lafite Rothschild 2009 and Mouton Rothschild 2009 are essential buys for the true fine wine connoisseur. Another firm favourite is Chateau Pontet Canet 2010, 100 point masterpiece of a wine.
