AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Bois de Rolland is a lovely mellow Bordeaux. The blend is 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon from a soil make-up similar to St-Emilion. The flavours are classic cherry, hints of oak, menthol, spice and violets. Bois de Rolland offers Bordeaux lovers the flavour of Bordeaux without having to wait 20 years or pay 3 or 4 digit price tags.

Bois de Rolland is ready to drink now, and it’ll hold its quality for a decade easily. Serve Bois de Rolland with roast lamb.

The fine tannins are present on the nose and these hints of vanilla are joined by crushed strawberries. The wine is full bodied and concentrated. The finale is fresh, fruity and gently woven with sweet tannins.

The first generation of the Geromin family to labour these soils put in back breaking hours of work to produce a fabulous expression of this wonderful terroir. They have now passed the baton to their 2 daughters. Audrey the eldest who learnt her trade at La Tour Blanche is now the winemaker, while her younger sister Marion is responsible for the distribution. Marion cut her teeth in distribution in Kuala Lumpur and worked in the Ribera del Duero region for 3 years.
