A ”Gastronomic ” Bordeaux wine
Château Bréjou displays an attractive, intense red colour, with spicy, toasted aromas that blend harmoniously with the fruit. On the palate, the fruit aligns well with the oak-aged character, so typical of the stunning clay-limestone terroirs exposed on the slopes of Sainte-Foy Bordeaux. This is a powerful, well-structured wine, made for the long haul.
