le Menut de Jacobins Grand Cru 2022

This approachable Bordeaux blend shows the hallmarks of a youthful vintage. Deep ruby in color, it opens with aromas of cherry, plum, and blackberry, accented by subtle spice, vanilla, and a touch of oak.

On the palate, it is smooth and balanced, with flavors of red and black fruits layered with hints of cocoa, tobacco, and earth. Medium-bodied with soft tannins and a clean, lingering finish, this is a versatile wine that marries fruit and spice in equal measure.

Perfect for everyday enjoyment, it pairs well with roasted meats, charcuterie, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses.
