As the saying goes, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general. With the release of the 2023 Bordeaux en primeur, the high-quality sub-wines of the major châteaux have also emerged.
Subordinate wines are usually created by the winery's professional winemaking team and represent the same style of the winery, but are usually more approachable and a good window into the famous winery. Today, Wine World has selected a few of the best second-time wines for you.

The 2023 Château du Milon sub-label red wine is dominated by Merlot, which is full of flesh, juicy, unrestrained and bold, and has a very charming style.
