Community Tasting Notes 3

  January 22, 2022 - Mini BC Bordeaux Blend: Mini blind tasting of BC blends.
  
  Nose of dark cherries. Mid light colour. Cherry notes dominate it. It’s a tad thin, with some alcohol. Easy enough to drink but underwhelms for the price. (Day 2 - held up well, cherries still there - but no structure, depth or finish to warrant the price they're charging for it).
  
  2 of 3 - both on nose and taste.

  December 18, 2021 - Light to medium colour for a left bank Bordeaux blend. VA, barnyard and pencil shavings on the nose - possibly from the cab franc. For a cab dominant blend, it tastes like a merlot - very limited fruit. It’s thin with a short lived finish. If it was under $30, it would be an okay wine - unfortunately it’s not under $30.

  November 27, 2020 - Drinkable but not my style - a bit too much alcohol and the fruit isn’t developed yet. Cab franc greenness is coming through, which will hopefully mellow with time.
