Jonathan Maltus Garagiste Bordeaux Supérieur 2018
About the wine
World-class Bordeaux red, steeped in rich, bold fruit and a sleek, elegant smoothness
- Jonathan’s bold, dreamy Bordeaux red is a satin-smooth treasure, dripping with dark fruit flavors that linger on through an oh-so luxurious long-lasting finish.
- Jonathan’s known as a "Garagiste" (a Bordeaux winemaker who produces only small amounts of wine, usually from single vineyards). For this complex red, your funding helped him source small, highly concentrated berries from world-class Bordeaux vineyards and age the wine a full 16 months for a stunning trademark smoothness.
- Jonathan's the Garagiste behind brands like Le Dôme that cost upwards of $200 a bottle. Angel funding lets him create your exclusive small-production wine, absolutely saturated with flavor... for less than $17 a bottle. His word to the wise: “Get it now before it sells out.”
Best before
This rich red is delicious now and it meant to be enjoyed while young. It will keep and improve for several years, but why wait when it's so delectable now?
Serving advice
This wine will benefit from opening half an hour before serving, although it is not essential.
Food match
Barbecued meat, stews and hard cheeses are a must with this classic Bordeaux.
Contains sulphites
