The Wine
The best value in Bordeaux can often be found in the ‘second wines’ of top properties, and that’s just what you have here. Château La Rose Saint Bonnet is made by Catherine Heraud at Château Saint Christoly – a cru bourgeois estate that has been passed down in her family for seven generations. According to French wine regulations she is only allowed to produce a limited amount of the Grand Vin each year, so the remaining grapes go into this great value claret – made with the same care and attention as Catherine’s award winning flagship wine but for a fraction of the price. A classic Cabernet Merlot blend with rich layers of cassis, fragrant oak and ripe tannins, this wine will make the perfect companion to a Sunday roast.
"Top vintage, oak aged Médoc at a tremendous price – makes it even better drinking!"
