Chevalier Du Grand Robert
2018 Bordeaux Rouge

Pair this wine with:
Beef Vegetables

Category: Bordeaux Other Red

Date Tasted:
Country: France
Alcohol: 12.5%
Burnt sienna color. Aromas and flavors of strawberry, black plum, blackberry, purple flowers, and cedar, and red bell pepper and green olives with a supple, dry medium body and a tingling, medium-length finish that presents accents of cedar, currants, black berry, and strawberry seeds with clunky, medium tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. A wine that will express itself best with a dinner complement like cassoulet; excellent structure and good flavors.

Bordeaux Other Red

Bordeaux reds are made from as many as five red varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec (although this last variety is rarely used in Bordeaux these days). While the classified chateaux form the Haut-Medoc are the most famous - and expensive - red wines from Bordeaux, there are several others produced in the region. Cru Bourgeois are excellent wines that are not as celebrated as the top wines of the region, but are fine values and are wines that can drink well for up to a decade.

Another red Bordeaux that is a notable value is Entre-Deux-Mers; wines from this district account for much of the basic Bordeaux reds that are produced today. Other reds from Bordeaux include those labeled as Blaye, Cotes-de-Bourg and Fronsac.
