We are always on the prowl for wines that over deliver and offer delicious drinkability at an outstanding price. We found such a wine with the Montfollet Cotes de Bordeaux from the highly acclaimed 2022 vintage! This wine shows expressive aromatics, perfectly ripened fruit and is surprisingly complex. This wowed our Hi-Time Buyers and had us scratching our heads when we confirmed the affordable price. The quality, value and drinkability are outstanding!
Decanter's critics gave this an outstanding 94 Point Score and we also enjoyed the balance of perfectly ripened blackberries, dark cherries and spice coupled with a classic Bordeaux earthiness. We would call this a crowd-pleaser with plenty of up-front fruit in a full-bodied frame.
Château Montfollet is a family wine estate located in the Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux appellation of France. Led by the Raimond family for three generations, it produces acclaimed red and white Bordeaux wines known for soft tannins, rich fruit, and great value. The clay-gravel and clay-limestone hillsides overlooking the Gironde Estuary are the perfect terroir for this terrific Merlot and Malbec blend.
This is crafted to be a fine everyday drinker and is a symphony of pleasure with each of the components working together in perfect harmony.
Eminently friendly and quaffable, this is still a serious wine and great example of what Bordeaux blends can offer, overdelivering in a big way. Buy and enjoy with confidence!
The 2022 Montfollet Le Valentin represents an amazing value and in fact, we are able to offer this wine at the lowest price in the country at $11.95 per bottle!
DECANTER 94 POINTS - " Rich nose, with fresh and stewed plum and cherry fruit flavours, and hints of rose, violets, cardamom and pencil shavings. Fine grained tannins add length and density."
