Tasting box from Bordeaux: 4 archival red Médoc wines (2001, 2008, 2011 and 2014)

Join us on a journey to Bordeaux. Specifically, to the sun-drenched, forested, and vineyard-rich region of Médoc. But we won’t only be strolling through the countryside, we’ll also take you on a tour through time.

You’ll become acquainted with 4 exceptional vintages of dry red Médoc wine, which were personally selected by our sommelier Jan Pánek. Médoc is an elegant, full wine that smells of currants and red fruit, and its flavor lingers long on the tongue. With him as your guide you’ll recognize yourselves how the full wines from Bordeaux transform over 10 years.

All 4 vintages are produced at the sustainable winery Château Saint-Hilaire. The local winemakers pick their grapes by hand, macerate them for 3 weeks, and then let them mature for 12 months in oak barrels. This is naturally part of the reason why they collect awards at prestigious competitions.

Set out on a journey from the youngest, light 2014 vintage to the rich archival Médoc 2001. We’ll guide you.
