Château du Bois Favereau - Cuvée Jean Jules 2011

Bordeaux Supérieur|Red wine

The Galineau family cultivates their vines using sustainable farming practices. The result is this generic Bordeaux, which combines body and fruitiness, produced through expertly managed winemaking and aging (12 months in oak barrels). A lovely Bordeaux that’s already enjoyable and will continue to improve over the next five years. A serious Bordeaux that’s certainly worth a few Médocs!
