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

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

About wine:
Fruit d'Automne 2015 recalls the thirst-quenching qualities of a Beaujolais: fruity, pulpy, low in tannins, vibrant.
About the estate:
Thierry Bos, originally from Gironde-sur-Dropt, is a determined and passionate winemaker! For more than ten years, he has been committed to reviving "forgotten" grape varieties such as Carménère, Malbec, and to a lesser extent, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The different vintages express wine styles with strong personalities. Always measured, with just the right levels of maturity and delicate extractions, we appreciate the atypical character of these wines. This is a winery that truly deserves our attention.
