Chateau de Mendis, Premieres Cotes de Bordeaux, "Red Label" Bordeaux, France, 2019
{sustainable} 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
RED CURRANT, FIRM BODY, LIGHT CEDAR SPICE
We find that it is often difficult to come across concentrated, rich Bordeaux at a low price. This offering from Chateau de Mendis is satisfying to the palate as well as your wallet. Aromas of ripe red fruit meet soft touches of pepper and oak in perfect harmony. Fourteen months of barrel aging and time spent in bottle come together, yielding soft and supple tannins. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!
Serving Suggestion: Homemade steak frites. Rigatoni w/ kale, feta, mushrooms, & fresh tomatoes. Blackened tofu w/ charred brussels sprouts & wild rice.
