Château Haut Gay, Bordeaux Supérieur 2015 (13%)

This is a perfect example of why Bordeaux remains the single most important wine region on earth. While the world’s plutocrats pay thousands for Pétrus or Lafite, producers such as Domaines des Comtes de Tastes offer these incredible value wines for single figure sums. Château Haut Gay delivers a superb ready to drink wine with all of the balance and blackcurrant fruit we expect from classically produced Bordeaux. 40% merlot and cabernet franc with the remaining 20% cabernet sauvignon. It also helps that the 2015 vintage is an outstanding one.
