2007 Chateau St. Georges, Cote Pavie St. Emilion Grand Cru

To our mind, Ch. St. Georges, Côte Pavie is making some of the best value wine that Bordeaux has to offer. The 2007 (80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc) provides the opportunity to purchase some cracking quality drinking Claret from an 'over-performer' of the vintage. Plummy in character but with enough spice and complexity to make it more than just another drinking wine, it will certainly grace the table of many a home.
