"Loving, loyal and intelligent, Portuguese Waterdogs are a treasured breed originally from the southern coast of Portugal. Our red blend is perfect for BBQ, roasts, hearty pasta dishes. Open a bottle and enjoy the Portuguese way of life!" —winemaker

"Having begun our venture in the Blaye region with Chateau Puynard in 2016, just five years on we received the keys to Chateau Magdeleine Bouhou In January 2021. Having admired the terroir here for some time, we set our sights on broadening our offering by adding another Blaye vineyard, but which offered a slightly different terroir and aspect to that of Puynard. Both vineyards have their own character, and we feel with both properties together, we have a strong offering that showcases the Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux appellation very well." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review- A right-bank Bordeaux that delivers with delicious flavor and exquisite, smooth drinkability. Perfect for a "daily drinker", this bottle has just entered its "sweet spot". Pop it open, give it a little time, and enjoy one of our finest under $15 bottles. Cheers!

"This wine stands out because of its marked fruity character which brings out all the qualities and characteristics of the Mencia variety. Its time in the barrel accentuates these qualities by providing subtlety, elegance, and complexity. In the mouth, it is silky, fruity, with persistence and great kindness." —winemaker
