🍷 So… what actually is a Bordeaux Blend?
Despite the name, it’s not one grape — it’s a blend of grapes traditionally grown in Bordeaux, France.
The big players 👇
🍇 **Cabernet Sauvignon** — structure, blackcurrant & a little spice
🍇 **Merlot** — softer, rounder & full of juicy plum
🍇 **Cabernet Franc** — freshness, perfume & red fruit
🍇 **Petit Verdot** — colour, spice & a bit of power
🍇 **Malbec** — richness & dark fruit
The fun part? **There’s no single recipe.**
Some Bordeaux blends are Merlot-heavy and soft & velvety. Others lean towards Cabernet Sauvignon and are bigger, darker and more structured.
It’s all about getting the grapes to work together — each one bringing something different to the bottle.
Basically, the w**e version of a very good group project. 🍷
And with 33% off our Bordeaux Blends right now, it’s a pretty good time to do some research… 😉
