About this wine
FREE SHIPPING on ALL ORDERS! From now until CYBER MONDAY, we’re holding shipments to clear out a log-jam in our warehouse (all hands on deck, y’all!), but we’re rewarding your patience TEN-FOLD with absolutely gratis shipping on every last bottle between today and December 1st. Just think of the savings! Sell-out alert! Up next, superstar Hubert de Boüard’s 93-point Bordeaux! 93 POINTS! From Château Angélus’ own, Hubert de Boüard! Bordeaux greatness at a price too low to be believed! Turkey Day might have gotten started with a White Burgundy, but Uncle Bill is passed out on the couch already, and we need to get things FIRED UP! So…93 POINT, simply rocking Haut-Médoc Bordeaux for JUST SIXTEEN DOLLARS?!?! Yeah, that oughta do it! I’m talking about 18 hectares of PRIME vineyard land, tucked right against the Left Bank of the Gironde river, squashed right between (and less than a mile away from each other) the GRAND plots of Margaux and Pauillac, all set on the famed river pebbles and alluvial soils that make Left Bank Bordeaux such an ageless wonder of the wine world!!! Château Romefort is in DA HOUSE! This historic brand has just recently been re-born – named for a historic castle tower further up the river, this producer has ties back to the 1800s heyday of Bordeaux, and now – like the return of Christmas jingles to your local radio station – back to claim its glory and place once more! Under the watchful eye of the mythical unicorn winemaking talents of the one and only Hubert de Boüard (Château Angélus, Château La Fleur in Lalande de Pomerol, and more…) this is an outrageously KILLER value…with all of the concentration, and inky depth of layer after layer of berry, cherry, and rich plum fruit that you would expect from Boüard’s pricier bottlings. Wild and savory notes of black trumpet mushrooms, wild fennel, and this chalky, mineral-y grip on the finish make this a powerful and bountiful expression of Left Bank Bordeaux – all at a price that addles the cerebral cortex! ONLY $16? We got every last bottle we could…the rest is up to you!!! While it lasts! First dibs on that last piece of pumpkin pie!
