The Cotes du Bourg appellation of Bordeaux surrounds the town of Bourg-sur-Gironde, where Romans planted the first vineyards. Winemaker Alain Faure is the sixth generation of his family to be making wine at this property, where his two daughters work alongside him. Made from 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, this shows pretty cherry and raspberry notes and a round, elegant finish, making it ideal to pair with charcuterie, lamb or braised beef dishes.

Alain Jaume 2016 La Butte d’Or St Joseph, France (Tim)
This red is made from 100% Syrah planted to granite and marl soils on hillsides facing southeast in the St. Joseph appellation of Northern Rhone. St-Joseph wines were favored by Louis XII (1498-1515), who owned a vineyard there called Clos de Touron. St. Joseph and Northern Rhone in general has a continental climate with cold wet winters marked by mistral winds, as opposed to the Mediterranean climate in the better-known Southern Rhone region. The nose on this red shows pepper and jammy red fruits, while the palate is full-bodied and intense with medium tannins and a long finish. Try with hearty comfort foods such as beef stew or leg of lamb.
