I am not sure if it was flawed or not, but the cap was bleached by the sun. However it has been stored horizontal as there are sediments horizontally in the bottle.
Colour: A bit orange in the edge, then ruby red.
Nose: Not much to pick up here. Some Forrest blueberry jam smell in the back. Oak is dominant.
Taste: Still some tannins in the wine, but well integrated. I have a bit trouble distinguishing any flavors, there are not that much berry or oak. It last longer than I would expect from a defect wine.

Nose: Delicous nose, getting oak, hint of berries on first smell. After a swirl the berries takes precense and mixes well in with the oak. This wine is really pleasant for the nose.
Taste: (few minutes after opening the bottle) There are some coarse tannins. The alcohol has some presence even though it is 13 percent. Tends towards ripe fruites/berries with some oak.
Taste nr2. Wine has come nicely together. It was more balanced and classical Bordeaux.
Let it breath to open a bit.

Good sauvignon blanc. Fruity but still has acidity.
Interesting nose.
