The 2024 Lucien Rigui Bordeaux Rouge is a classic, approachable expression of Bordeaux, led by Merlot. The wine opens with inviting aromas of ripe red and black fruits, followed by subtle spicy notes. On the palate, it is supple and harmonious, with silky tannins, balanced freshness and generous fruit character. Easy-drinking yet distinctly Bordeaux, with a clean and pleasantly fruity finish. A versatile red for everyday drinking, ideal with grilled meats, beef, veal, poultry, charcuterie and soft cheeses. Serve at 16-18 degC.
Winemakers Notes

Based in the heart of Bordeaux, Eurovins works closely with château owners and wine producers across Bordeaux and other French appellations, selecting and developing wines for both the French and international markets. The Lucien Rigui range showcases approachable expressions of classic Bordeaux appellations, including Bordeaux and Médoc.
