A 2022 Médoc by L'Île Inattendue, crafted from 100% Merlot grapes harvested at perfect maturity. The winemaking follows the Médoc tradition—destemming and crushing—followed by 10 months of aging in vats, designed to preserve the fruity aromas right to the glass. At 15% ABV, the bottle should be opened an hour before tasting to fully reveal its character. At the table, it pairs naturally with a grilled rib steak, slow-cooked beef with carrots, spiced lamb meatballs, or a generous charcuterie board. A Bordeaux red with a bold personality, ready to enliven the meals that matter.
