2019 Chateau Les Gravieres de la Brandille, Bordeaux Superieur, France
$14.99
Located close to the vineyards of Saint-Emilion, this château has been in the Borderie family for five generations. The house style is classic: savory and elegant with ample fruit graced with a dusting of mineral aromatics. The wines are remarkably consistent from vintage to vintage. You will be hard pressed to find a better Bordeaux under $20.
65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc from 40+ year old vines planted in clay and gravel. This 5th generation Bordeaux house makes classically rendered, dusty, balanced, thoroughly delicious "baby claret." Certified HVE3 (High Environmental Value level 3, the highest certification before organic).
