Vieux Château Guibeau 2016
This is boutique Bordeaux at its best …
The Bourlon family have been sharing their wines with us for years – and you get exclusive access to this barrel-aged 2015 release (which also boasts a gold medal from France’s prestigious Gilbert & Gaillard).
Tucked away in the sought-after Saint-Emilion satellite village of Puisseguin, the Bourlon family’s estates are hailed as “top châteaux” in the region by wine writing legend, Hugh Johnson. And that world-class quality has really soared in recent years, thanks to the Bourlon family’s collaboration with renowned consultant, Michel Rolland.
Here’s our man in Bordeaux, Jean-Marc Sauboua, on what you can expect in your glass: “2016 was a fantastic follow-up to the 2015 harvest – the wines from this vintage are in perfect, harmonious balance. The Bourlon’s 2016 effort has so much energy, with bright, red-fruit driven flavors and wonderfully velvety tannins. Enjoy it now or put it down for a few years – it has good potential for aging.”
Limited cases available – order soon to avoid missing out.
