Who says Bordeaux is the rich man’s drink? Believe it or not, there really is decent Bordeaux just about anyone can afford. I give you the 2018 Terre Blanche from the Graves district. This vintage shows an herbal nose with whiffs of red fruit and spice. The palate is soft and approachable, with excellent persistence in the finish. A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
