Description
Bordeaux's satellite appellations are regions that abut the great wine-growing areas of Bordeaux and share some of their attributes. The wines of Fronsac, which is situated on the Right Bank, are predominantly Merlot with Cab Sauv and Cab Franc used in support. They offer amazing value, delivering complexity, depth, structure, reliable balance, freshness, and notes of cassis, dark fruit and spice. Enjoy this example with barbecue fare or save it for 2-3 years.

Tasting Notes
Fronsac is one of what are referred to as Satellite Appellations of Bordeaux: regions that abut and share some of the attributes of the great wine-growing areas of Bordeaux. Situated on the Right Bank, the wines of Fronsac are predominantly Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. This example suggests the area's typical ripeness with plenty of dark fruit, cassis, oak and spice. Approachable, rich and long, it's a tremendous value and over-delivers at this price point.
