I highly recommend B‑21. Amazing price on shipping and competitive pricing. They answer questions quickly and professionally. I've been using them for several years and there has never been an error in my order and there has never been a problem with the packaging. Thank you B‑21!

B‑21 has always offered the best wines at the best prices of any vendor. I had a lot of problems with FedEx shipping on several occasions, but all of a sudden they've implemented a new schedule and notification system that really seems to work. This delivery was on time and perfect. Looking forward to my next order.

Good selection, fair prices and prompt/economical delivery. Minor but worrisome gripe: 2 bottles in the last shipment either were corked or the corks were loosen in shipment. The bottles were both fully intact, as were the foil caps, but both had leaked into the box. One lost about 75% of the wine, and the other only about 10%. They were 2 of 6 vermentino wines from as very reputable Tuscan producer that I know well, having been there twice.

The service has always been perfect. Our wine arrives quickly and the UPS man calls me to come down and sign for it. I can only get this wine from one supplier in Florida and they always do a perfect job of making available to me.

Sadly, UPS damaged my shipment of the last bottles of Banyuls wine in B‑21 inventory. The message I received was that the unbroken bottles of my order was being returned to sender (B‑21). I was beyond bummed! B‑21's customer service was extraordinary. In order to arrange for a replacement shipment to be sent, they had to replenish their stock. Within a few hours, I got a message saying the wine was ordered, and confirmed that I'd receive an email when the order was shipped. I couldn't ask for better service. I highly recommend B‑21 for their selection and service. Thanks so much for going above and beyond.

I love this wine! It was delivered promptly and very nicely packed. The only thing is the carrier left it at the main building and not to the address I specified. I guess next time I will add a phone number for the carrier to call me. Love this Sangria!!

The folks at B‑21 turn orders quickly and the$24/case shipping cost is reasonable. My shipment arrived with one broken bottle that apparently was empty when it was packed, as there was no evidence of wine in any dividers, the bottles in the case, or the case itself. The cork was still in the bottle. It was disappointing to lose a bottle of my wife's favorite wine, and they refunded the price of the bottle without delay. It was unfortunate that this happened, but hard to understand how an empty bottle could have been put in the case. I am satisfied with their response and hope to continue doing business with them.

2010 Citran Ex-Chateau 2022 (750ml)

Merlot from Haut-Medoc, Bordeaux, France

B-21 Top Recommendation

WOW, what a pleasure! Tasted in February at Vinexpo Paris against Bordeaux from 2009 and 2010, which were two to three times the price, I was blown away by the shockingly good 2010 Chateau Citran, From the outstanding Bordeaux vintage declared “truly superb” by James Suckling, the 2010 Chateau Citran is an opulent, expressive and pristinely cellared Left Bank blend coming direct from the Chateau cellar, an exciting opportunity to enjoy the complexity of a well-aged Bordeaux now and over the next few years for an incredibly budget-friendly price.

Located just west of Margaux in the Haut-Medoc and classified as Cru Bourgeois, the fairytale-like 13th century Chateau Citran was owned by the same family for over 600 years until the early 1800’s, falling into disrepair over the next century and a half until considerable investments beginning in the 1940’s fueled its renaissance. Under the ownership of renowned Bordeaux merchants, the Merlaut family since 1996, the 2010 Chateau Citran was sourced from the estate’s 94 hectares of sustainably farmed vineyards, planted mostly to Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon with a small amount of Cabernet Franc in sandy gravel soils and divided into two major parcels, one surrounding the historic chateau and the other near the village. A blend of 55% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cab Franc, the hand-harvested fruit for the 2010 Chateau Citran was sorted in the vineyard and fermented in a combination of stainless steel and cement tanks and oak barrels under the direction of famed consultant of Eric Boissenot, then aged in 38% new French oak barriques for 15 months with the additional 10 years of bottle aging yielding a nuanced, aromatic Bordeaux with layered dark fruit and mellowed, ultra-fine tannins.

While the quality of many older Bordeaux vintages can be questionable due to less than optimal storage conditions, this ex-Chateau offer of the intriguing 2010 Chateau Citran guarantees perfect provenance, a not to be missed opportunity to enjoy an expertly cellared, well-aged Bordeaux that’s drinking beautifully at a simply incredible price - certain to sell out quickly, don’t hesitate to secure your stash.

Ripe and engaging, with dark, juicy plum and boysenberry fruit liberally studded with anise, cocoa and tar notes that hang through the well-structured finish. Should age well in the near-term. Best from 2014 through 2022. 32,500 cases made.

90 points, James Molesworth, Wine Spectator (Mar 2013)

Aromas and flavors of orange peel, dried strawberries and hints of coffee. Full and chewy with a good amount of tannins and a pretty finish. Already delicious. Try in 2015.
