This is a great wine to enjoy while cooking dinner and while eating dinner. It is a great price point for a daily wine.

I shared a case of this with a friend. I wish I had been more selfish.
from SC on 8/13/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
This wine is an excellent Bordeaux at a very reasonable price. I have drunk alot of 2005 Bordeaux, a year that produced some of the best Bordeaux in a while. This one ranks at the top, particularly for the price. Honestly it's worth 2 or 3 times what you pay.
from Sparta, NJ on 8/9/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
Not a very bold wine, but it is clean and balanced with smooth tannins. Goes great with a simple weeknight meal. Agree with some others that for about $11, this is a great value. Don't think this will age well so drink now through next year.

Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:

Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
Not to overpower any comments from wine connoisseurs who may be better judges than me...I have to agree that the value of this wine far exceeded my expectation. This 2005 Bergerac wine is undervalued.

from NY, NY on 7/21/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
This wine is quasi undrinkable. I don't know if I got a bum bottle or what, but I feel like the best use for this wine is in salad dressing.

from deKalb IL on 7/4/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
It paired well with salmon and grilled chicken for a 4th of July festival. IT took a while to open and I thought it was tight at first, perhaps a wile in the cellar would round the wine out a bit more. Once it sat around and we got to eating chocolate however it really blossomed. Paired with dark chocolate it really shined. 3 stars today could be more in a few years when I open the other bottle I bought
from Thomas Mills, PA on 7/2/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
Great value. You'd pay a lot more for only a marginally better Bordeaux. Just ask a Frenchman. Bring on more Bergerac!
from Newport, RI on 7/2/2009

from Duluth, MN on 6/4/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
Not a bad wine, but I felt there was not much there. I'll give it a little while and try again, but this will be a nice wine to have with a casual dinner - nothing special. Worth the price paid.
from New York on 6/4/2009
Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
This wine has a strong crushed floral nose. Taste hints of cherries, strawberries and dark chocolate. It covers the tongue with balanced but tamed tannins, acidity and has a nice aged oak barrel flavor with a really nice smooth finish. Recommended with pastas (Red and Oil based sauces)Cheese platters,bready foods, and chocolate covered fruits. For the price this wine is a homerun. Also, I especially like the romantic aspect of it being from Bergerac!! :o)

Hi everyone, We had this delicious wine with Beef Wellington the other evening. It was very complementary with the meal. I will try it with venison in the future.

This was an excellent wine for our evening with other wine lovers. We did not purchase enough of this wonderful wine for everone to get their fill at our Vineyard Murder Mystery Dinner. They wanted more but we moved on to other selections.

Comments about Chateau Michel de Montaigne 2005 Bergerac:
Great balance and depth of flavor. I usually let a bottle settle for 2 weeks after shipment, but I tried this after 1 week of resting. I found it to be an outstanding value. I'd serve this wine proudly to any guest and the price almost qualifies it as a "daily drinker".

Can't beat this region for this price.
