2007 Chateau Montet Bordeaux




It’s pizza night at my house, that’s the night we make pizza dough from scratch and clean out the fridge. Thinking a nice Bordeaux will pair perfectly with the pizza.

Classic Bordeaux aroma of oak and leather, already I can tell this wine is going to be dry, dry, dry. Soft fruit flavors and high tannins swirl around the palate providing for a nice but somewhat short finish.

My biggest problem with the European wines is the lack of online information. All I can tell you is on the back label. Seems the winery has been run by a family of women for seven generations. Their main goal is to produce quality wine using control yields, strict supervision over the winemaking process.

If you like the classic dryness of a Bordeaux, this wine won’t disappoint. I found this one at Total Wine for less than $9.
