“A classic blend of Merlot (80%) and Cabernet Franc, this deep-colored 2015 vintage offers a harmonious bouquet of ripe black fruits accompanied by subtle, elegant vegetal notes. On the palate, it is round, smooth, soft, and full-bodied, supported by velvety, silky tannins. The epitome of a pleasant, indulgent Bordeaux. ” (Le Guide des Vins Hachette 2018)

About the wine:
A classic blend of Merlot (80%) and Cabernet Franc, this deep-colored 2015 vintage offers a harmonious bouquet of ripe black fruits accompanied by subtle, elegant vegetal notes. On the palate, it is round, smooth, soft, and full-bodied, supported by velvety, silky tannins. The epitome of a charming, indulgent Bordeaux.
About the estate:
An 8-hectare estate farmed organically, owned by the same family since 1935 and spanning four generations, regularly recognized for its sweet "Palais d'Or" wine from the Côtes de Bordeaux-Saint-Macaire appellation and for its red Bordeaux wines. After ten years as a pharmacy technician, Thierry Bos took over the family estate in 1990.

Rated estate (2018 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the wine:
Fruit d'Automne 2015 evokes the refreshing qualities of a Beaujolais: full of fruit, luscious, low in tannins, and vibrant.
About the estate:
Thierry Bos, originally from Gironde-sur-Dropt, is a determined and passionate winemaker! For over a decade, he has been dedicated to reviving “forgotten” grape varieties such as Carménère, Malbec, and, to a lesser extent, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. His various vintages express wines with strong personalities. Always balanced, with just the right level of ripeness and delicate extraction, we appreciate the unique character of these wines. A winery that truly deserves our attention.
