Chateau Les Moines Bordeaux Cru Bourgeois 2016
Country/Region of Origin: France

Region: France, Bordeaux

Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot

Tasting notes: Laced with dark fruit flavour (cassis, blackberries, plums and more) with delicious complexity and just the right amount of oak. Chateau Les Moines offers a perfect balance of spiced fruit and oak that will have you wanting more. The beauty of Cru Bourgeois wines is that they sit just below the Cru Classé levels and are continually evaluated. This means you get excellent, well tested wines that aren’t just relying on a famous name that offer incredible value.

Reviews

Jane Macquitty, The Times 9/4/2021: "Top Cabernet Sauvignon: Classy cru bourgeois claret, with gorgeous, rich, tarry, beef tea fruit."

Jonathan Ray, The Spectator: "A fine Cru Bourgeois claret that always goes down a storm with readers and rightly so. A blend of 70 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon and 30 per cent Merlot from a 10/10 vintage, its resolutely in its prime with buckets of spicy, plummy fruit, and should be knocked back with abandon."
