Chateau Le Grand Verdus Bordeaux Superieur Grande Reserve 2010
Château Le Grand Verdus is a 115 hectare winery in the heart of the hills of Entre Deux Mers, 20km East of Bordeaux, near Saint Emilion. Since 1810, the Le Grix de la Salle family has owned this superb Renaissance manor, which dates back to 1579. The Le Grix de la Salle family has passed the secret of genuine Bordeaux wine making from generation to generation. Today, Antoine and Thomas Le Grix de la Salle continue this great heritage.
Acknowledged as one of the Grands Vins of Bordeaux Supérieur appellation, this wine is amazing and surprising. Made from the strict selection of best grapes from five superb plots located at Grand Verdus hilltop vineyards, Grande Reserve gathers great potency, delicacy and minerality in one. Showing intense truffle and oriental spices notes, it is a truly perfect example of THE best of Grand Verdus.
