Community Tasting Note

PaulusLoZebra Likes this wine:

Saturday, June 24, 2017 - Typical dark Cahors, with bright violet edges; intense nose of fresh dark fruits, with hints of cassis and spice; fairly round, full mouthfeel, but with a persistent acid structure that keeps it fresh for a whole meal; nice, well integrated tannins and a hint of residual sweetness. This is a fairly big wine, but an easy drinker thanks to the nice acid levels, no obvious oak, and tannins in check. This is a very well made wine, but can't rise above the inherent limitations of Malbec, namely a lack of aromatic and flavor complexity; that said, because there is rather little oak, it is better than many wines at this price level.
