Quit Yer Whininā, Itās Wine Time If @braseiro_sg $20 for 2 housepour merlots aināt fancy enough for you, then look no further than their well curated winelist. It features five French reds that go by the glass, and an additional five that only retail by the bottle. Of course, they have another three reds from other countries, two whites and a rosĆ© if youāre so inclined.ā

Sitting pretty in this glass is a pour of Clarendelleās 2017 vintage Bordeaux. Itās a classic Bordeaux red blend, and its DNA is 67% merlot, 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, and just one percent Cabernet Franc. Itās one hundred percent fabulous too, as its velvety smooth and heavy body emit aromas of vanilla, oak and leather. The flavours, however, are distinctly blackberry, plum & raisin, with fleeting hints of cinnamon in there.ā

As expected of a good Bordeaux blend, Clarendelleās Bordeaux is charmingly complex with great fruit forward flavours and soft, rounded tannins. Tis a wonderful wine, and is best enjoyed slowly sipped between big bites of juicy entrecĆ“te.
