Chevalier du Grand Robert Bordeaux Superieur Red Blend Wine

"Bordeaux Supérieur" is the part of this label worth reading closely. It is a protected designation that stands on its own, apart from a bottle marked simply Bordeaux, and regional guides are firm that the full name has to stay with the wine. What it marks is a broad region rather than one commune or a single vineyard, so it places the red somewhere in Bordeaux without saying which corner. 4 shoppers have rated it, averaging 4.25 out of five.

A wide name like this leaves the growing conditions open. Atlantic weather and the region's rivers influence Bordeaux, yet a vineyard's exposure and its distance from the water shift from one plot to the next, and a regional label cannot narrow that for you. If you are choosing by place, this points you to the broad region, no finer. The distributor Executive Beverage carries it in its national portfolio. In our September 2026 checks it was listed between $9.99 and $24.88. Which grapes fill the blend, and the exact commune behind them, are not something we can confirm.

Independent sources fill in some of what the label leaves out, with caveats attached. The Beverage Testing Institute rated the 2018 vintage 89 points, a Silver Medal it called “Highly Recommended,” though the review site itself cautions that a score from that year can no longer be certified against a current bottle. A retailer listing separately states a blend of 68 percent Merlot, 24 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 4 percent Cabernet Franc, 2 percent Malbec and 2 percent Petit Verdot, sourced from a vineyard at the junction of the Garonne and Dordogne rivers and fermented in stainless tanks; that listing displays a 2021 vintage, so the blend may not match whatever vintage is currently on shelf. The importer behind the brand, Boutique Beverage Company, describes itself as a brand developer that sources wine from small and mid-sized wineries across established and emerging regions, rather than owning a single estate.

Our call: reasonable if the Bordeaux Supérieur designation itself and a dated but respectable critic score are enough for you; an independent reviewer gave a recent vintage 89 points and called it Highly Recommended, and 4 shoppers here have rated it 4.25. Pass if you buy by grape percentages or a named commune: the blend on record comes from a retailer listing that may not match the vintage on shelf, and the label itself commits only to the broad Bordeaux Supérieur region, not a finer point of origin.
