  Virtual right bank Bordeaux tasting (blind). (Skype): Wine 4 of 6. A blend of 85% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc, supposedly.
  
  Medium brick-ish colour. Red fruit, cherry, leather, tobacco, vegetal notes, spices, and mint as well as earthy and balsamic notes, with good, medium-level acidity, mostly resolved tannin, and very good length of the lightly tannic finish. Not the most complex mature Bordeaux, but it easily makes up for it with its balance and plush texture. Very harmonious.
  
  More earthy yet still fairly balanced, persistent, and enjoyable on days two and three.
  
  This wine drinks well on its own and I liked it quite a bit!
