Château Les Moines, Cru Bourgeois, Médoc 2010

Château Les Moines 2010 is an outstanding affordable 2010 claret that "should be knocked back with abandon". It is a perfect example of a superb Cru Bourgeois from the greatest vintage (along with the 2009) of modern times. With over 8 years of bottle age and now fully mature, it is a shining example of how good claret at under £20 a bottle can be.

It is in stock and our last shipment from Bordeaux is on its way. I am sure it won't last for long!

How does the wine taste?
Laced with dark fruit flavour (cassis, blackberries, plums and more) with delicious complexity and just the right amount of oak. It is drinking beautifully now and will for the next 3-4 years.

What do the critics say?
"Top Cabernet Sauvignon: Classy cru bourgeois claret, with gorgeous, rich, tarry, beef tea fruit."
Jane MacQuitty, The Times 9/4/2021

"A fine Cru Bourgeois claret that always goes down a storm with readers and rightly so. A blend of 70 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon and 30 per cent Merlot from a 10/10 vintage, its resolutely in its prime with buckets of spicy, plummy fruit, and should be knocked back with abandon."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator
