Description Château de Bidalet in Saint André du Bois is one of Bordeaux’s unsung hero estates. Its 15 hectares of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vines lie on classic clay-limestone soils and produce exceptionally ripe grapes. The resultant reds are beautifully intense and show great poise, balance and class. As critic James Suckling says: “After two weeks in Bordeaux tasting more than 1,100 wines from the 2018 vintage, visiting 67 chateaux and talking to hundreds of vintners and winemakers, I can tell you that 2018 is an exceptional year for Bordeaux wines.” This lovely twice-Gold winning 2018 affirms it!
