I love this wine. I mean, it's not inexpensive...but I just love it.

Why do I love it? I'll be quick...

1) The wine is delicious
2) There is no place in the US you can buy this wine for less, and only 2 places on planet earth you can buy this for less
3) I love that it tastes great now, but has the bones to age if I want to save a bottle or two for a special occasion.

Now for the full report? 

One reason we attend the largest wine trade show in France each year is to try and find some Bordeaux that is extremely high quality but not outrageously expensive (and nowadays that is no easy feat...)
 
The whole Bordeaux market, especially with all the negociants involved, is like the wild west of wine trading. Lots of middle men getting their cut, and the same bottles passing through multiple suppliers before it ends up at the end consumer. All that leads to super inflated prices, and we needed to try and just go direct to the source.
 
Luckily, we found what we were looking for in Saint-Émilion superstar Jaques Bertrand.
 
I will challenge anyone reading this to find better Bordeaux for less than $75 per bottle. I’d even put this wine up against Bordeaux I’ve tasted in the $150-$250 per bottle range.
 
Saint-Émilion is the oldest area of Bordeaux and its Roman ruins are a frequent reminder. Still, when the region was getting codified, Saint-Émilion was left out – it was sleepy and nearly forgotten. That changed in the 1990s when the garagiste movement of tiny Saint-Émilion wineries started making stunning, trend-setting wines. So the “Old” Jacques Bertrand Estate of Chateau Carteau is both Old School and modern all at the same time.
 
Chateau Carteau is a very typical Saint-Émilion blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon and it sees a bit more new oak than is typical at this price point. Half new and half one-year-old barrels generate more spice and weight in the mouth and, in a vintage like 2021, that is just right. 
 
Chateau Carteau was released at $50 but we are bringing it to you for $29.99 - which also happens to be the lowest price ever offered on this wine in the United States (you know, cutting out the middle man thing).
 
So maybe not a Taco Tuesday kinda wine - but you better believe I will be drinking a bottle of this on Friday!! 😂
