Idiom 'B' Bordicon Blend 2018

The Idiom 'B' Bordicon Blend is a red wine blend of five noble grape varietals; Cabernet Sauvignon (60%), Cabernet Franc (20%), Merlot (10%), Malbec (5%) and Petit Verdot (5%). The wine was matured for 14 months in 225 litre French oak barrels (45% new). This Bordeaux inspired red wine blend displays aromas of ripe red currants, tea leaf and cigar box, followed by hints of cinnamon, tobacco and trademark cassis character. On the palate there are good firm tannins with lots of restrained red and black fruit with hints of vanilla, spice and dark roasted coffee. A wine of great pedigree with a long lingering finish that will reward cellaring.

We aim to to have your delivery with you within 5-7 working days of receiving your order, but often it can be much sooner. If you need your order by a certain date please get in touch and we'll do our best to get it to you as required.

 

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
