Château Bouissel 2005 Le Bouissel Red (Fronton)
- Online Exclusive
- $26
An intriguing blend of Négrette, Syrah and Malbec, this wine is a selection of the best lots of the vintage. It has purity of blackberry fruit, edged with an earthy, barnyard character. It is ripe, generous, but not overweight.

Château Bouissel 2008 Le Bouissel Red (Fronton)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
- $20
An impressively structured wine, this great blend of Négrette, Syrah and Malbec shows intense tannins underlying powerful juicy black fruit flavors. Aromatic, spicy and driven by its dry texture, it should age for several years.

Château Bouissel 2009 La Négrette de Bouissel Negrette (Fronton)
- Online Exclusive
The Négrette is virtually a one-appellation grape, rarely found outside Fronton. Very aromatic, it has produced a wine that has dense and dusty tannins, sweet fruit acidity and flavors of black currant and licorice.

Château Bouissel 2009 Le Syrah de Bouissel (Vin de Pays du Comté Tolosan)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Almost black in color, this is a Syrah to rival the most concentrated wines from the Rhône. It has weight, richness and power, its dark damson fruit flavors and tannins almost lost in all this intense fruit. Age for 3–4 years or drink now.

A strongly tannic wine, tough at the edges. The core is more juicy, with black cherry as well as bitter chocolate, bringing out spice, pepper and a layer of wood. The finish shows more berry fruit characters.

Château Bouissel 2004 Cuvée Sélection Red (Fronton)
