Tasted blind. Nose of chalk, lemon. Round and slightly sweet body (comes across as slightly off-dry?) with apple and lemon curd. Good acidity to balance it out.

2009 Thunevin Mauvais Garçon / Bad Boy
France, Bordeaux
Brown spice, red berry, and wood notes. Plush, forward body with sweet red/black fruit, tobacco, leather and chocolate. Finishes with fine tannins. Big and a bit simple, but enjoyable.
