Enjoy this good value, Cru Bourgeois Médoc from a 5-star vintage. A Gold medal winner too. 2015 produced deliciously ripe, fruit forward wines and this oak matured Médoc is drinking perfectly. Wine Advocate called it "a thoroughly enjoyable Médoc".

For good value, classic drinking, it's difficult to beat the Cru Bourgeois wines of the Médoc. And 2015 was an awesome vintage for the region. “2015s are wonderfully sensual, exotic wines that should drink well relatively early and also reward aging”, wrote Vinous’s Antonio Galloni. This is one from an estate founded by the Dutch in the 17th century. More recently it has been renovated and replanted by a group of wine loving friends. Its 23 hectares of vineyard lie on two gravelly hills, close to the estuary and 15km from the Atlantic. The seahorse on its crest is a reminder of the waters' promiximity. Mainly Cabernet with Merlot, aged in oak barrels, this 2015 shows why Cru Bourgeois makes smart, classic drinking. Top choice with game.
