Here's a fantastic value Bordeaux from the exceptional 2018 vintage. Located in the Entre-Deux-Mers region this family owned estate has recently been converted to fully sustainable viticulture. This 120 acre property on clay and calcareous soils has well established, mature vines averaging 25-40 years of age.
70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, vinification is in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine ages on the lees in the same tanks before bottling. It shows exotic spice and potpourri on the nose along with black currants and cherries. The palate is broad but supple with ripe fruit, berry, and more spice notes leading to a round, dry finish. A very pleasing wine on its own but surely will pair beautifully many different dishes. Best of all, it's priced for everyday!
