Tasting notes
Baron de Tours is an elegant, medium-bodied Bordeaux from the gravel vineyards of the Médoc. It’s a blend of predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, which lends it a lovely blackcurranty edge, and Merlot. With its ripe black fruit flavours and cedar notes this is great value Bordeaux that would make a superb accompaniment to roast lamb or game.
The Bordeaux region is divided by the Garonne and Dordogne rivers. On the 'left bank' of the Gironde, the Médoc area makes red wines mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Usually they're blended with one or two other grape varieties, including Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
