Chateau Perron La Gourdine Bordeaux 2022 750ml

Château Perron La Gourdine's 2022 comes from Faleyras, a village in the Entre-deux-Mers where the Nadau family has owned the vineyard for around 150 years.

The estate covers roughly 70 hectares on the limestone plateau south of Libourne. For this red, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are blended in equal parts, giving it a bit more grip than the Merlot-heavy wines common in the area.

On the nose there are black cherries and vanilla. The palate brings dark, black-berried fruit with hints of spice and toffee, held together by a firm, well-balanced frame. It is medium-bodied and ready to drink now.

Choose this when you like some Cabernet structure in a budget Bordeaux; pick Château Freybernat 2024 when you would rather have a softer, Merlot-led blend.

Serve it around 62°F, and give it half an hour in a decanter if the tannins feel tight on opening. Grilled ribeye, lamb merguez or aged cheddar all suit it.
