Château Bourdicotte Cuvée Les Côteaux Bordeaux Supérieur Rolet Jarbin 2006
Château Bourdicotte Cuvée Les Côteaux 2006 is a red wine produced by SCEA Rolet Jarbin. The estate is a member of the "Club Cordier" partnership, aligning with Maison Cordier, a historic Bordeaux wine producer established in 1886. Through this collaboration, Château Bourdicotte commits to meeting Cordier's rigorous quality standards in both vine cultivation and vinification. The wine is bottled directly at the château.
The wine originates from Bordeaux, a world-famous region on the Atlantic coast that has been exporting wine since the Middle Ages and is celebrated for its elegant blends. It holds the Bordeaux Supérieur classification, a regional AOC established in 1943. This designation mandates stricter production rules than the standard Bordeaux AOC, including lower yields, older vines, denser planting, higher minimum alcohol content, and at least nine months of aging. The 2006 vintage is characterized as tight and classic, earning a score of 88 points.
The blend consists of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Within the broader Bordeaux region, Merlot traditionally dominates the Right Bank of the Gironde estuary, while Cabernet Sauvignon is the primary grape on the gravel soils of the Left Bank. These two varieties form the foundation of the red wines produced under the Bordeaux Supérieur appellation.
