Grands Crus de BordeauxBordeaux wines from the 2015 vintage. The Lady loves her Bordeaux wines. The white wines are a great caviar and wine pairing.

Many members of the Union Des Grandes Crus de Bordeaux came into New York to show their 2015 vintage.

All of these wines demonstrated that 2015 was a great year in Bordeaux. The wines were balanced, and highlighted each regions character. Most showed their easy drinking now. Some others showed that as much as you could enjoy the wine today the wine needs time to develop.

For the favorite wine of the day, they were all good.
