90+ Cellars Lot 161 Bordeaux 2019 (750ml)

When it comes to classic wines, it doesnt get much more classic than Bordeaux, France. Bordeauxs roots in wine go back thousands of years. The meticulously tended vineyards of Bordeaux flank the Gironde Estuary which empties into the sea along Frances Atlantic coast. There, the five red Bordeaux grapes are grown: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. The percentage of each variety in a given Bordeaux blend is dependent on the vintage. Cooler vintages tend to have a greater percentage of Merlot since it is easier to ripen than the Cab.
