Bertrand Braneyre 2000 (750ML)

92 Points, Zachys Buying Team: “Where else can you find an aged Bordeaux at this price point that takes you to the Left Bank with one whiff? This is an under $27 gem that delivers pronounced and intoxicating aromatics of an aged claret, along with mature fruit and tertiary development on the palate. The tannins and fruit are well-integrated for a smooth, almost creamy texture that gives way to notes of stewed cherries and plum, underbrush, leather, tobacco, and baked earth. This is a classic Bistro Bordeaux to serve at home without an expensive price tag. If you like aged Bordeaux, or want to discover it, this is the perfect introduction.�
