July 2008
- A great little Bordeaux from a small, family-owned estate near Castillon. The grapes come from organically cultivated vineyards. The 2006 is a Merlot-based wine (60%) with some Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet France added to the blend. In 2006 Tour de Goupin, produced great classic Bordeaux wines with intense color, fresh fruit and rich tannins. This is a great Bordeaux value from organically farmed vineyards. An elegant red Bordeaux with a delicate nose of red berries and licorice. The palate is full of ripe red fruit and plum flavors - the Valpromy's maintain that this richness is thanks read more...to the lack of fertilizer. This wine has a velvety texture and a nice, smooth finish. Enjoy now to 2011 with grilled meats, barbecue, sandwiches and dry cheeses.Pair With: Barbecue Beef, Barbecue Chicken, Barbecue Pork, Broiled Red Meats, Sandwiches (hide)
