Bordeaux is home to some of the world’s greatest wines, but did you know the region is split into two distinct styles – the Left Bank and the Right Bank? The names simply come from which side of the Gironde and Dordogne rivers the vineyards sit, but the wines are very different. Read on to learn more.
Handpicked from 40 year old vines, the grape quality and outstanding terroir show here. Perfect left bank structure, with Cabernet power. Drinking well now but there’s potential to age. At this price, it’s an absolute steal!
A beautiful right bank example with Merlot richness and softness. Made from 35 year old vines, which contribute to the concentration of flavour, this is a modern style that’s very food friendly – ragu, lamb chops or roast beef will lap it up nicely.
