Château Lafôret Bordeaux

Now that winter has passed and spring has a firm hold, we can all concentrate on important matters at hand, namely getting the barbeque grill ready for another season. And the secret for hassle-free entertaining is to have a great “house wine” on standby. The 2009 Château Lafôret is immediately appealing for its soft velvety texture and likable, fresh red fruit flavors. This is a perfect example to illustrate what even “petit” Bordeaux can achieve in a great vintage like 2009. This wine is ready to drink and already delicious. Just add a couple of medium-rare steaks and pour. All of this is available in an attractive package that will leave your guests thinking you paid a lot more.
