Boisset Collection and Halloween Candy Pairing
Walnut Creek, Ca.
Tasted Monday, October 18, 2021 by bestdamncab with 48 views
Introduction
Novel idea and a fun pairing.
Flight 1 - Halloween candy, and strawberry, black berry, and raspberry plus assorted candy items. (6 Notes)
interesting, Snickers and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups were my favorites but they killed the wine effectively, novel idea for a tasting and great excuse to taste some wine.
Closing
Boisset Collection tried twice now, neither a value or quality proposition, well made, touch simple, either you like them or don't.

Nice nose, lovely nose, concentrated fruit, very tight, small amount of soft tannins on medium/long finish, photo uploaded, potential for higher score in 3 years, at $29 retail there is both quality and value here, photo uploaded.
