There’s value to be had in Bordeaux – you just need to know where to look. This sub-region doesn’t bring the hefty price tags that the classified growth players flaunt, but that’s good news for us. There is solid Bordeaux character here, with all of the earthy notes hitting clearly and bringing the fruit interplay that you would expect to pay a lot more for. Bravo! A Platinum Award winner at the 2021 Monterey International Wine Competition.
