The vineyards for this top-quality red wine are nestled at the foot of the beautiful hills characteristic of this region. These vineyards are all designated "Vielles Vigne," or old vines. While yields are significantly lower than those of young vines, the resulting juice is far more concentrated and of higher quality. These grapes come from Bourdic's finest vineyards. The harvest for this Le Prestige Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon is carried out entirely by hand to select only the finest fruit. After vinification, this Bourdic red wine is aged for 18 months in small barrels, adding character and depth to the wine.
With this information, we suspect we're in for a real treat. Le Prestige certainly lives up to its name. The aroma is incredibly expansive. It's truly a pleasure to savor. Delicious! The aromas of black fruit and mocha interplay beautifully. You can taste how the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon bring out the best in each other. The taste perfectly matches the profile we've been given by the aroma. Intense and full of beautiful nuances of black fruit, chocolate, vanilla, and spices. The finish is rich and long with soft tannins.
