Chateau Bauduc Merlot, France
A medium-bodied, tasty Bordeaux blend and the ‘prestige’ house red at Hotel du Vin.
2018 has been widely quoted as a ’miracle’ vintage in Bordeaux.
This is because the outlook was quite gloomy after a damp and cool summer the vintage was saved by six weeks of lovely sunshine through to harvest time in October.
The resulting wines are ripe and fleshy with firm tannins and nice levels of natural acidity.
