Food Pairing Suggestions:

• Bordelaise-style ribeye steak: The classic red wine and shallot sauce pairs beautifully with the wine’s supple tannins and fruity aromas.

• Duck breast with figs: The richness of the duck and the sweetness of the figs complement the elegance and silky structure of this Cru Bourgeois.​
