Château Bourdon La Tour

AOC CÔTES DE BORDEAUX

TASTING

A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, this wine has an intense ruby colour full of promise.

Just as intense, the bouquet gives a large place to breeding notes (spices, roasted coffee), but a ripe fruit begins to appear in the background.

The round and supple palate, however, has enough substance to give hope for a blooming fruit and liquorice notes. The long and tannic finale is a good omen.

FOOD PAIRING

Perfect with a roast beef with small onions or a grilled pork topped with honey.
