WINE DESCRIPTION
Château Bournac Médoc embodies the essence of Bordeaux's Médoc region, situated on the left bank of the Dordogne River. Known for producing exceptional wines, this Château exemplifies the historic quality associated with the Médoc appellation. The term "Bourgeois," originating in the 17th century, distinguished everyday table wines from superior selections like Château Bournac, long before the Bordeaux Classification of 1855.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Pouring a deep, dark red, Château Bournac Médoc offers an intense and fruity aroma with abundant dark berry notes, particularly blackberry.On the palate, it is dense, compact, and velvety, showcasing deep fruit flavors alongside hints of fresh cherry and subtle, soft tannins. Its full-bodied nature reveals fine sweetness and a touch of smokiness, enhanced by its aging in barrique. With time, it promises to further develop in structure. This wine boasts an excellent price-to-quality ratio and pairs wonderfully with robust dishes such as pasta with rich sauces, beef, or game. Enjoy now or cellar for several years to enhance its complexity.
