Nestled in a quiet corner of the Dordogne - right next door to Bordeaux's illustrious Saint Emilion region - Grand Gaillard has, for many years, offered reliability and superb value for money. Hence why it's the bestselling Merlot in our history!

This spectacular 2007 vintage is the tastiest yet - and with hot new winemaker Lionel Condeau at the helm, it's no wonder! His enthusiasm and commitment to quality deserves mention - like green harvesting, which removes all but the healthiest fruit weeks before harvesting ... leaving vines to focus on fewer grapes. Yields down … but quality sky-high!

Seductively rich with aromas of plums, damsons and redcurrants. The fleshy richness and succulence that claret lovers adore, and a long, fruit-filled finish. A superb value alternative to Bordeaux!
