This 2019 St. JOHN Claret is a classic Bordeaux blend crafted specifically for the dinner table, offering balanced tannins and excellent depth. At 13.5% ABV, it's fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for 8 months in French oak barrels, creating an approachable dry red drink with a perfect balance of structure and fruit.

Blended every November from young vines across the Sichel estates, this wine embodies the St. JOHN brand's philosophy of quality without pretension, a wine that's serious enough for special occasions yet accessible enough for everyday enjoyment. The thoughtful combination of Cabernet Sauvignon (49%), Merlot (43%), Cabernet Franc (6%), and Malbec (2%) grape variety delivers remarkable complexity and food-friendliness.

This is the bottle for those who appreciate fine dining at home, whether you're serving a Sunday roast or a weeknight steak, it's the unfussy yet remarkable companion that complements every meal. This type of wine also makes an excellent gift for wine enthusiasts.

Why It Stands Out

  • Restaurant Quality: A red from Michelin-starred St. JOHN.
  • Perfect Food Pairing: Designed specifically for the dining table.
  • Balanced Complexity: Fine tannins with excellent depth and structure.
  • Traditional Craftsmanship: Oak-aged for character without overwhelming.

Tasting Notes

Expect a supple, fine-textured red with pronounced blackberry notes and subtle graphite minerality, the kind of approachable wine that's enjoyable in youth yet with enough complexity to reward attention.

About The Producer

St. JOHN revolutionised London dining in 1994 with their nose-to-tail philosophy and unpretentious Michelin-starred food. Their wines follow the same principles: honest, high-quality, and made to be enjoyed rather than merely admired.
