Community Tasting Note

Eudemis Likes this wine:

Thursday, April 16, 2020 - 13% alcohol. CS 55%, M 40%, CF 5%. Very good cork, very dense and pretty long and showing no wine penetration whatsoever. Decanted 45 mn ahead. The colour is deep and it shows no sign of fading.
The nose is very engaging with wild dark berries (and confectionery developing after a while). The mouth is better still, with a winning juicy quality and excellent grip. Some oak comes across as welcome seasoning.
A joyous wine, and it is not often that I would say this about a Bordeaux. This must have costed no more than low double figures, and it delivers well above its price point. Will last another ten years without a bother. This is an object lesson in integrating a fair dose of M without swamping the CS. A success without a doubt. Oh, and did I say that I like it ?
