75cl * 12.5% ABV * Bordeaux, France
Two things to instantly take away from this wine when looking at the bottle or this web page is the words Cru Bourgeois a guaranteed mark of quality in the Bordelais region. In a region dominated by growers only those who surpass standards can claim Cru Bourgeois status, being judged on operating procedures and blind tasting of their wine.
The second thing is 2015, a very good year in Bordeaux. It had been blisteringly hot until the very last stage of the grape growing process when a fortuitous rain aided in producing top quality red grapes.
This wine will have the classic Bordelais taste, dark fruits, a hint of oak and forest floor. amongst myriad other flavours and smells. This is a classic wine, mature and ready to drink. At this price, its incredibly good value too. Salut!
