Château Saint-Pierre 1999 by Saint-Julien France.

Saint-Julien is an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) for red wine in the Bordeaux region, located in the Médoc subregion. It takes its name from the commune Saint-Julien-Beychevelle and is one of the six communal appellations in Médoc. A number of classified (Grand Cru Classé) Bordeaux estates are located within the appellation.

I like the Château picture on the label. It is interesting and unique. I have not tried this wine yet. I like to put this wine next to my other Château wine collection.

Bordeaux vin de Bordeaux by Mis en Bouteille par France

A Bordeaux wine is any wine produced in the Bordeaux region of France. Average vintages produce over 700 million bottles of Bordeaux wine, ranging from large quantities of everyday table wine, to some of the most expensive and prestigious wines in the world. 89% of wine produced in Bordeaux is red (called “claret” in Britain), with notable sweet white wines such as Chateau d’Yquem, dry whites, rosé and sparkling wines (Crémant de Bordeaux) all making up the remainder. Bordeaux wine is made by more than 8,500 producers or châteaux. There are 60 appellations of Bordeaux wine.

I could not find production year on the label. The logo and the brand are standing out. The label has a stopping power for customer to buy this wine. I have not tasted this wine yet. However, I like to keep this wine in my wine rack collection.

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.
