Saturday, February 13, 2016 - This started out with great promise. The glass quickly filled with crème de cassis, violets, and dry herbs. On the palate, this had a latent tannic grip along with cassis, smoke, and black fruits. The finish on this is pretty clipped.

After about 90 minutes this really started to unravel with the aromas turning into menthol, and the tannins overshadowing the fruit that had started to fade.

When I want a Bordeaux blend in the future I will stick with a Bordeaux wine.
