Marquis de Bourdon

AOC Médoc

Tasting

From gravel to clayey-gravelly soils and clayey-limestone, this
cru can rely on a great diversity of terroirs. This wine affirms its
personality with a bouquet combining the toasty notes of the breeding, still very present, with a pretty fruit. Then the palate surprises with its softness, roundness and fullness. Perfectly balanced.

Food Pairing

Serve with red and white meats, games or cheese.
