Last summer Brett and Jeff attended the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux trade tasting in Chicago where they were impressed by the overarching quality of the 2019 vintage from Bordeaux. But they were equally impressed by the growing number of the region’s white wines and sweet wines that are becoming available in the U.S. as many American wine lovers and wine professionals have begun to look beyond Bordeaux’s legendary red wines.
They are part of a broader offering of wines, many of which Brett and Jeff discovered at the Chicago event last June. Look out for more of these gems in coming weeks.
While most people know and love Bordeaux for its long-lived and powerful expressions of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, the region’s sweet wines are often overlooked by American wine lovers.
