Château du Bois Favereau - Cuvée Jean Jules 2011

Château du Bois Favereau - Cuvée Jean Jules 2011

The Galineau family cultivates its vineyards using sustainable farming practices. Their hard work is reflected in this generic Bordeaux, which combines body and fruitiness, the result of expertly executed winemaking and aging (12 months in oak barrels). A lovely Bordeaux that’s already enjoyable and will continue to improve over the next 5 years. A serious Bordeaux that’s certainly worth a few Médocs!
