Blaye & Bourg

Want a Bordeaux-style red that doesn’t need a special occasion? This Blaye Cotes de Bordeaux from France leans into dark berry fruit, earthy depth, and that classic dry, grippy finish that makes steak taste even better. If you usually reach for a Cotes du Rhone or a Merlot-heavy blend, this is a super satisfying switch-up.

Plush, dark-fruit Bordeaux red vibes without the wait, Blaye is the kind of Right Bank neighbour that makes weeknight steak feel like a plan. Chateau Peyronat leans Merlot-led (think black cherry, plum, a little cocoa), with that classic French savoury edge that’s made for roast chicken, burgers, or a cheese board you didn’t overthink.
