Château Mont-Pérat: The ‘Queen in a Bottle’ Bordeaux Red

Château Mont-Pérat is a true rock star among Bordeaux wines. Famous worldwide after being featured in the hit manga *The Drops of God*-where it was famously likened to a ‘Queen concert in a bottle’-this Merlot-dominant blend delivers exceptional quality far beyond its price point. Sourced from the clay-gravel slopes of Entre-Deux-Mers, this wine showcases the Despagne family’s commitment to modern winemaking while respecting classic Bordeaux terroir.

Expert Tasting Profile

This red wine displays a deep, inviting garnet hue. The nose is highly expressive and complex, bursting with aromas of ripe black fruit (blackberry, plum) and elegant hints of vanilla, mocha, and sweet spice, thanks to careful aging in French oak barrels.

The palate is full-bodied and intense, yet remarkably supple. It features a fleshy mid-palate supported by round, silky tannins that melt seamlessly into a long, persistent finish. This is a powerful, yet balanced, wine that promises great enjoyment now or after several years in the cellar.

Pairing & Serving Suggestions

Serve between 60-64°F (16-18°C) to unlock its full aromatic potential. This structured red is built for rich, savory dishes.

• **Cheese Board:** Aged Cheddar, Gouda, or any rich, firm cheese.
