Le Comptoir

"A good is tasty, where you can see the winegrower behind, but everyone got its own good wine" 

For our new article, we've been to Le Comptoir where we've met Dominique, the owner. Coming from Paris, he worked into the catering sector during 20 years before moving to Bordeaux. 
"It's an opportunity that brought me here" And this is how Le Comptoir born 7 years ago. 

He choses the wine directly to the producer with a taste for independent winegrower. He likes biodynamic wines that you will see that with the 3 he suggested : 

- Bordeaux, Clos de la Dame Verte, 2012, 14,50€ (red) : Independent Belgium winegrower, 100% Merlot, burgundy vignification with soft & long tannin. With a taste of red fruits, it's a real and atypical Bordeaux 

- Cru Beaujolais, Sur la Root, 2010, 15,90€ (red) : Small tannin with soft red fruits. This wine is like a burgundy wine, the winegrower masters the nature of his vineyard. 

- Côtes du Ventoux, Les Amidyves, 2010, 14,60€ (red) : Located in the south of the Côtes du Rhône, it's a real south wine, a really sunny one. With 60% Grenache & 40% Syrah, it taste like black cherry and tapenade, a powerful wine perfect for the winter nights.
