Half the size, but full of classic Bordeaux charm.
This 2019 Bordeaux Supérieur from Château Argadens punches well above its price tag, even in this convenient 37.5cl half bottle. It’s a traditional Merlot-dominant blend with that unmistakable Bordeaux elegance – think ripe blackberries and cassis layered with cedar, graphite and a touch of spice. The tannins are silky, the structure refined, and there’s just the right amount of oak to add polish without overpowering the fruit.

When to drink it: A brilliant midweek bottle for two, or perfect with a steak and chips at home. Enjoy now or hold for another 2–4 years.
“This is a proper little gem – classic claret in a half bottle, with all the polish and poise you’d expect from Bordeaux. It’s smooth, stylish and so easy to enjoy. I love this size when I don’t want to open a full bottle midweek. It’s great with dinner or just a good book and a cheese board.”
Château Argadens is owned by the Sichel family – a respected Bordeaux name since 1883 and co-owners of Château Palmer in Margaux. They purchased the neglected estate in 2002 and set about transforming it with major investments in vineyard replanting, a new winery, and sustainable farming practices.
Located in Saint-André-du-Bois, southeast of Bordeaux, Château Argadens benefits from limestone-rich soils and excellent vineyard exposure. Their aim is to create a modern expression of Bordeaux Supérieur – approachable, fruit-driven, and made with real care.
How it’s made:
The result? A Bordeaux with freshness, finesse and staying power – ideal for traditionalists and modern wine drinkers alike.
