Château Croix Mouton (Jean-Philippe Janoueix)
Réserve du Château Bordeaux Supérieur Red Bordeaux Blend
Vintage 2013 | it is easy to underestimate this petit Bordeaux, but it is truly good value. Drank this today from a bottle which was opened 72h before (with oxy stop) > so reliable and giving pleasure. Nice summerfruit and medium bodied. Paired with paksoi and a meatball.

Apr 8th, 2023A very nice and sturdy, yet very approachable Bordeaux blend - a hint of terroir but a good balance of ripe red fruit that carries throughout. Nice finish while it’s a little muted on the nose. Good stuff!
