Domaine de Galouchey, Le Galouchey Vin de Jardin, 2020

$46.00

Domaine de Galouchey’s Vin de Jardin 2020 comes from a small estate located seven km from Libourne in Bordeaux, where a diverse field blend of classic Bordeaux varieties including Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Carmenère is planted organically. The estate labels this wine as a Vin de France rather than a standard Bordeaux appellation, allowing it to embrace flexibility in vinification and express the vineyard’s personality more freely.

The wine shows red currant, cherry, leather and cocoa notes framed by subtle herbal and mineral touches. The palate offers bright fruit, supple tannins and a fresh, lively structure, with enough grip and complexity to reward time in the glass. This bottling combines approachability with depth, making it a standout value in refined, small-scale Bordeaux.

Varietal: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Carmenère
Appellation: Vin de France, Bordeaux, France
Farming: Organic; low-intervention, field-blend approach
Style: Red. Fresh, textured and expressive without pretension
