Roquette & Cazes

I saw this wine at a shop in my neighbourhood. It was not the usual food and wine shop, but one in which the owner takes delight in trying out eclectic and different wines, in order to be able to recommend some really fabulous wine to his customer. He drew my attention to the wine above. I thought I had no knowledge of this partnership between the Roquette family (who owns Quinta du Crasto) and the Cazes family of the Lych-Bages fame. But an internet search revealed another vintage, another wine from the same terroir and partnership, Xistro, which although I did not taste, was nevertheless on sale at the same time in one of the wine chains as Chrysea, which I did drink. The latter is another collaboration between a port maker and a Bordeaux vigneron, just like this one.
