Chateau La Courtiade Bordeaux Supérieur (750ml)
- In stock
- Mevushal
This mevushal Bordeaux Supérieur comes from Univitis, a cooperative in South-West France that makes OK-kosher cuvées for the export market. It is predominantly Merlot, so it is soft and fruit-forward. It is also easy on the wallet, a kosher Bordeaux to pour at any Shabbos table without overthinking it.

Tasting Notes
The wine shows ripe blackcurrant and plum, with a touch of toasted oak and a hint of dried herbs. It is medium-bodied and generous with fresh fruit. The Merlot-heavy blend gives soft round tannins, and the Cabernet backbone adds a gentle structure. It is smooth, and it fades quietly on spice and fruit.
Food Pairing
Serve it with brisket, roast chicken, deli platters or grilled vegetables, or at a casual midweek meal.
Plum, cassis, Friday-night easy.
