The $32 Bordeaux That Could Age 15 More Years (Wine Club Release Review)
from Poppin' Bottles with Brandon & Barry · host The Fox + Bottle Podcast
Brandon and Barry open two standout bottles from The Fox + Bottle's all-French wine club release — and one of them might be the best value Bordeaux they've ever tasted.First up: a silky 2021 Grenache-Syrah from Tevelle in the Rhône Valley. Smooth body, bright acid, and the kind of easy-drinking energy that makes you want to linger around the kitchen island with good people.Then they go deep on Brandon's personal favorite from the club: a 2020 Saint-Émilion 100% Merlot from Bordeaux. Think cherry, cocoa nib, rich mid-palate — stunning right now, but built to age another 10–15 years. This is not your California Merlot.They also cover:The science of wine storage (why temperature, movement, and light all matter)A recap of the biggest wine club party The Fox + Bottle has ever thrownNews about the new outdoor patio barA major announcement: the Bubble Club is launching in August🍷 Join the Wine Club → https://www.thefoxandbottle.com🎙️ Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/poppin-bottles-with-brandon-barry/id1874540129🎵 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/7yCWK3WRBbvUgL1j40rgNN#PoppinBottles #FrenchWine #WineClub #Bordeaux #RhoneValley #WineTasting #EdmondsWA #TheFoxAndBottle #WinePodcast #SaintEmilion #WineStorage #BubbleClub
