Kressmann Saint-Émilion Grande Reserve 2006 by Kressman France.

Saint-Émilion is an Appellation d’origine contrôlée (AOC) for wine in the Bordeaux wine region of France, where it is situated in the Libourne subregion on the right bank of the Dordogne. Saint-Émilion is registered as a world heritage by UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. The wines of Saint-Émilion are typically blended from different grape varieties, the three main ones being Merlot (60% of the blend), Cabernet Franc (nearly 30%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (around 10%).

The red color label on the bottle cap is so eye catching. I have not tasted this wine yet. I like to put it on my wine rack collection.

Kressmann Médoc Grande Reserve 2006 by Kressman France.

Médoc is an AOC for wine in the Bordeaux wine region of southwestern France, on the Left Bank of the Gironde estuary that covers the northern section of the viticultural strip along the Médoc peninsula. The zone is sometimes called Bas-Médoc, though this term is not permitted on any label. With few exceptions there is produced only red wine, and no white wine has the right to be called Médoc.

The red color label on the bottle cap is so eye catching. I have not tried this wine yet. I like to put it on my wine rack collection.

Kressmann Solo Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 by Kressmann France.

The SOLO range, based on a resolutely forward-looking concept of flawless quality, is geared to meet the needs of a modern life style for wine drinking pleasure. This young and adventurous range consists of 7 wines from the South of France.

This Kressmann label is quite different. The color purple instead of red.  However it is interesting label. Silver font color on the brand gives an elegant effect on the label. I have not tasted this wine yet. I like to put it on my wine rack collection beside my other Kressmann Edition.

Château Moulin de Curat 2006 by Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion France.

Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion is an Appellation d’origine contrôlée (AOC) for wine in the Bordeaux wine region of France, where it is situated in the Libourne subregion on the right bank of the Dordogne. It was granted AOC status on 14 November 1936, and the AOC designation granted to the wines which have been harvested on the land of the Puisseguin commune. 753 hectares (1,860 acres) of vine planted areas have belonged to the appellation in 2005, with a production of 34,648 hl. Puisseguin-Saint-Émilion only produces red wine, and nearly all of the grape varieties from Bordeaux can be and are used, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Côt, etc., although it is Merlot that is used most often.

This wine bottle is one of my favorites. The embossed logo shape is stand out on the bottle. The picture is also interesting with the eclipse golden border. The message of the brand is also strong. I like it. I have not tasted this wine yet. I like to put it on my wine rack collection.

Château du Taillan Haut-Médoc 2006

Château du Taillan Haut-Médoc 2006 by Cru Bourgeois France.

Haut-Médoc is an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) for wine in the Bordeaux wine region of southwestern France, on the Left Bank of the Gironde estuary. Covering a large part of the viticultural strip of land along the Médoc peninsula, the zone covers approximately 60 kilometres (37 mi) of its length.

The Cru Bourgeois classification lists some of the high quality wines from the Left Bank Bordeaux wine regions that were not included in the 1855 Classification of Classed Growths, or Grands Crus Classés. As the classification of Classed Growths had only one change since 1856, it came to be widely regarded as outdated, and many wine writers agree that there is considerable overlap in quality between the Classed Growths and the Cru Bourgeois.

I like red and white combination on the label and cap. So eye catching. The building picture on the label is interesting. It make me eager to know what building it is. I have not tasted this wine yet. I like to put it on my wine rack collection next to other Château wine edition.
