This is honest, grounded Médoc, the kind of claret that shows good Bordeaux doesn't need a classified-growth name on the label. Château Bois Mondont is a 15-hectare Cru Bourgeois estate in Saint-Germain-d'Esteuil, in the AOC Médoc on Bordeaux's Left Bank. Its vines grow mostly on clay-limestone. The wine is a blend of two grapes: Merlot for roundness and black fruit, and Cabernet Sauvignon for structure. Since 2013 the estate has had the same owner as Château Castera, owned by Thomas Press, and it's run as a property in its own right with the Castera team's know-how. Castera comes with some excellent trivia: in 1616, Anthoinette de Montaigne, the philosopher's niece and Dame du Castera, signed one of the oldest recorded sales of Médoc wine, and the document is still on display in the estate's square tower. The house aims for a supple, fresh style that drinks well young. A 2016 with a few years in bottle is an easy, unfussy way into traditional Bordeaux.

Flatiron's Take

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Steak frites with shallot butter, roast leg of lamb with garlic and rosemary, duck confit with sautéed potatoes, mushroom and Gruyère tart, or a simple burger with aged cheddar.

Tasting Profile

Expect a supple, fresh Médoc claret built around Merlot: ripe plum, black cherry and blackcurrant with the savoury, earthy edge typical of the Left Bank. It's typically medium-bodied, with soft, rounded tannins and bright acidity, finishing dry and clean. Think classic everyday Bordeaux, more approachable than austere.
