Two Petit Chateau Bordeaux Values!

 

2018 Chateau Pierrefitte Lalande de Pomero...$19.99 / 750ml
Superb red color with intense garnet reflections. An expressive nose that exhales pleasant notes of red fruits coated in spices. An ample mouth, with substance and melted tannins. A long and delicious finish.
Pair with mushrooms, Provençal-style rabbit, or cheese platters.

2018 Chateau Haut Veyrac Les Sens du Lisse...$14.99 / 750ml
The Château Haut-Veyrac property, owned by the Castaing family, is located on one of the hills overlooking the village of Saint-Émilion in Saint-Étienne de Lisse. The vineyard now extends over an exceptional terroir of 9 hectares in one piece. The clay-limestone soil makes it possible to cultivate the Merlot Noir and Cabernet Franc grape varieties in the best conditions.
