Marquis de
Bel-Air
Margaux
2015
This elegant Cabernet based blend from Bordeaux has 20% Merlot and 5% Petite Verdot added. It is bold and well structured with great aging potential, but is already drinking very well with a core of ripe dark berry fruit supported by mature, mouth-coating tannins. Notes of spice and mocha work into the long finish.
$32.99

Greetings from Burlington Wine Shop,
As we march towards Christmas and New Years Eve the next few tastings are going to focus on fun new wines to enjoy with friends and family or give as gifts for the wine lovers in your life. Some of the wines will be a little more splurgy than our usual lineup and we'll culminate with our usual Sparkling and Champagne tasting to finish off the year. We look forward to seeing you this afternoon to taste some exciting new wines.
