With the U.S. dollar getting stronger against the Euro, wines from Europe are becoming a little more affordable. One bargain from France is
Château du Juge Bordeaux ($11.99).
This pleasant, everyday Bordeaux comes from the right bank of the Garonne River Valley. The southwest facing slopes of the Premières Côtes de Bordeaux furnish the complex soil-structure and the climatic conditions that are necessary prerequisites to the production of great Bordeaux.
Château du Juge Bordeaux is remarkably harmonious and well-structured for the price. I like to drink de Juge with steak frites, but it also pairs well with pasta Bolognese.
