"This is undoubtedly the finest Bon Pasteur since the 1990. The wine offers a saturated ruby/purple color, and an attractive, smoky, ripe berry-scented nose, with notions of vanilla and spice. Sweet, dense, and layered, with medium to full body, pure black cherry fruit, low acidity, and moderate tannin, this beefy, chewy wine requires . . . cellaring."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
A tiny, prestigious Right Bank appellation famed for opulent, velvety Merlot-based wines. Iron-rich clay soils yield some of the world's most coveted and concentrated reds.
