(Bordeaux Superieur)

Bertranon, (Bordeaux Superieur), 2008

From an historic chateau (17th Century) in the town of Ste-Croix-du-Mont, just to the north of St. Emilion itself, comes a happy addition to our portfolio of “Unsung Heros of Bordeaux”!
$13.95 gets you a quite sophisticated blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and a little Petit Verdot. Along with cassis, there are hints of mint, mocha and ripe tobacco. A very nice fruit-foward effort.
