Bordeaux Rouge Monopole 2018 Kressmann 75 cl

Description

History

In 1858 Edouard Kressmann arrived in Bourdeax, he fell in love with the wine culture, which fascinated him deeply, acquiring skills in both the production and promotion of wine. In 1871, he established Ed. Kressmann & Cie to offer a vast selection of wines, seeking out unknown properties with terroir and high-quality cuvées. Edouard is convinced that the superiority of the wine comes from the combination of wines from the same terroir. Thus, in 1897, the first Bordeaux brand still present on the market was born: the Kressmann Monopole.

Perfect with structured first courses or second courses based on red meat or game, even cooked for a long time, or with medium-aged cheeses.
