Château Pey-Bonhomme ‘Les Tours’ Bordeaux Rouge 2021
Location: France, Bordeaux, Côtes de Blaye
Winemaker: Catherine & Jean-Luc Hubert
Grapes: Grapes: Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec
The Hubert family is making a name for themselves in Blaye, right bank Bordeaux. They farm biodynamically (unfortunately rare in the region) and are rigorously traditional in vinification: cement and old barrels, hand sorting, a focus on gentle macerations rather than rough extraction… This is a post-fermentation blend (another lost art) that varies vintage-to-vintage but is always intended to the quintessential wine of the family, each year. Drink now for earthy, brooding and bruised fruits or lie one down for 5-8 years to see the dusty-but-finessed results.
