Reignac Bordeaux Superieur
75% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon |
$40.00
per 750ml btl.
The Wine Advocate 93
points - RP
Big time sleeper of
the vintage.
Possibly the finest Reignac I have ever tasted.
Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by a sweet nose of blackberries,
cherries and smoke, and is deep, full-bodied, moderately tannic, fresh
and well-delineated. |

Blackberry and
currants follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with fine tannins and
a fresh, fruity aftertaste. |

| Chateau
de Bel
La Capitane Bordeaux Superieur
100% Merlot |
$18.00
per 750ml btl.
Dark ruby, medium
intensity with purple hues. On the nose, complexity from American oak as
in toast and chocolate and ripe 100% Merlot fruit, wild blackberries,
blackcurrant and cherries. Rich mouth feel and menthol freshness. On the
palate, excellent fruit concentration that lingers with extreme
intensity. |

Chateau Jalousie
Bordeaux Superieur
70% Merlot, 19%
Cabernet Franc, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon |
$15.00
per 750ml btl.
A round, supple,
meaty wine with a good backbone, loads of ripe red fruit notes and ripe
tannins.
With the juicy drinkability of Saint-Emillion and the structure of
Medoc, Chateau Jalousie makes an attractive, keenly priced alternative
to both! |
