In a few words ...
The 2015 vintage is considered a great vintage in Bordeaux. This cuvée, with its aromas of black fruits and fine oak, is very pleasant to drink with a fine piece of meat. We can wait another year or two for it to reach its peak.
A full-bodied wine with ripe fruit aromas! A real pleasure to drink!

First order, so some anxiety when opening this bottle. Tasted with a cabbage stew. Velvety, fruity, supple. A delight for this first order. Excellent value for money. Ah! if my future tastings of TWIL wines (including those in the monthly box offered to me) are anything like this one, I'll be in for a real treat...

Just as I like my Cru Bourgeois wines: not too heavy, fruity and easy to drink. But, remember to chill the wine, 30 minutes inside your fridge will bring out the fruit.

This Haut Médoc Cru Bourgeois is a worthy representative of this classic, elegant appellation. This vintage is perfectly balanced and not far from its peak. Drink now.

Since I'm being asked my opinion, I'd say it's an excellent wine, well constructed, with a good attack and good length, an authentic Bordeaux, and since we're talking about money, it's worth twice as much.
(One undrinkable bottle out of the three I opened can happen...)

Blend of 3 interesting grape varieties: Cabernet franc, Cabernet-Sauvignon and Merlot.
A powerful wine with a fine balance between acidity and tannins.
Perfect with poultry and beef!
