Château du Bousquet Côtes de Bourg 2022

Bright and generously fruited, the 2022 Château du Bousquet opens with aromas of black plum, cherry, and blackberry, accented by hints of violet, spice, and a touch of mocha. The palate is smooth and rounded, offering juicy dark fruit, soft tannins, and a gentle lift of freshness that keeps the wine lively. Deep ruby in colour, it finishes supple, warm, and pleasantly rich with lingering notes of ripe berries and subtle oak.

Château du Bousquet is located in the rolling hills of the Côtes de Bourg on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, an area known for Merlot-led blends with warmth and charm. The 2022 vintage produced particularly ripe, expressive wines throughout the region, and this cuvée reflects that character while maintaining balance and approachability. Crafted for early enjoyment yet with enough substance to hold for a few years, it’s a versatile, modern Bordeaux well suited to grilled meats, hearty dishes, or casual bistro fare.
