2018 Jouanin, Cotes de Castillon

SKU #1430149

Thank the emerging region of Cotes de Castillon for this spectacular deal in red Bordeaux. This cuvee shares many qualities of top-flight St-Emilion, with a great sweetness of fruit along with vanilla and spicy notes from new oak. Everyone who loves wine knows, it is hard to find a steal in Bordeaux these days, but this wine offers a lot of wine for the money.

Mocha, cherry and raspberry nose preceding a floral and ground coffee palate all in a lighter, prettier style of Bordeaux. This wine has got a long life ahead of it for the price point but also opens up incredibly well for a wine so young, the lighter body invites all sorts of left field wine pairings and would work perfectly for an office happy hour

Delightful aromas of violets and freshly rained on forest. Plush, velvety, and absolutely delicious. Pomegranate, blackberries, dark cocoa, and a hint of vanilla at the end. Smooth finish with just enough tannins. Drink on its own or pair with roast beef, roasted vegetables, hearty pasta dishes and steak. Enjoy!

Classic 2018. Don't let the low price scare you away. This reminds me of the 1997 Cantemerle: it drinks great young, but will age (if you can keep your hands off it.) Wild spicy berry and floral character. Full-bodied, with soft tannins.

Additional Information:

Varietal:

Merlot

- A very popular red grape variety found in the great wines of St. Emilion and Pomerol. It is the most planted variety in Bordeaux, and it has also become an extremely fashionable red in many regions including California. Although it has a reputation to be smooth, and easy to drink when young, Merlot is also capable of producing extremely intense wines as well. It is often used as a blending agent with Cabernet Sauvignon.

Country:

France

- When it comes to wine, France stands alone. No other country can beat it in terms of quality and diversity. And while many of its Region, Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne most obviously, produce wine as rare, as sought-after and nearly as expensive as gold, there are just as many obscurities and values to be had from little known appellations throughout the country. To learn everything there is to know about French wine would take a lifetime. To understand and appreciate French wine, one only has to begin tasting them.
