Varietal: 65% Merlot, 25% Cab. Sauv., 10% Cab. Franc Vineyards: Salignac and Villegouge (NW of Libourne)
Color: Garnet / brick red Nose: fresh (young) fruit; strawberry, raspberry Taste: decently balanced, very light, no complexity, slight acidity Finish: short duration with a slight chalkiness
Overall, this is a fairly decent but unexciting pour. Ready to drink now as I doubt it will improve with further aging. The wine is uncomplicated and lacks structure. A decent QPR but better selections are available for a couple dollars more.
