Chateau Michel de Vert 2010
★★½
Lussac Saint-Emilion, Bordeaux, France, $12
The key to finding great value from major wine regions such as Bordeaux is to invest in the lower-priced wines from outstanding vintages, such as 2009 and 2010. This one is a terrific bargain and shows the plummy, plush texture of merlot along with the woodsy spice of cabernet franc.
