Discovery Bordeaux is a very good way to see what you can expect from honest passionate winemakers in Bordeaux, they allare very eco-friendly and produce wines with no additives and don’t use pesticides on their land.

The first one is an organic wine from Cadillac, Chateau Brethous, a merlot based wine that drinks really easilyand has a lovely velvety palate, it’s fruity and fresh with some oak influence, some of the aging is done in new oakbarrels. The second one is a Bordeaux superieur with a blend of merlot and cabernet franc, very red fruit and easydrinking Bordeaux.

And the last is a white Bordeaux from a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, a vivid fruity wine with citrusfruits and floral notes. The oak aging gives it some vanilla notes and a long finish.

2 x Château Brethous, Cote de Bordeaux-Cadillac, Classic, 2015

The 100% Merlot expresses amazing fresh fruit and yet can age for easily 5 years, it has a small amount of aging in French new oak that raises the complexity of the wine. 21 months of aging before bottling, an amazing vintage that offers very good value for money and in total respect of sustainable viticulture.
