Mary Taylor 'Jean Marc Barthez' Rouge, Bordeaux, France 2018 Case (6x750ml) Clerc Milon Italian countryside

Italian countryside

coupled with the concentration and swagger of the 2010 vintage

with an almost Pomerol-like opulence and richness on the palate

a hint of prune attests to the wine's ripeness

Dense and tightly meshed

Mary Taylor 'Jean Marc Barthez' Rouge, Bordeaux, France 2018 Case (6x750ml) Clerc Milon Italian countrysideWith the simple Bordeaux appellation, made by Jean Marc Barthez, head of a small cooperative in the greater Bordeaux area, is precisely the sort of wine you imagine the locals drinking, at least, those without the big chateaus. Its supple, dry, fresh, mildly tannic, humble and direct, just a good, refreshing drink.
