Wednesday, April 17, 2024 - A 6 year old cru bourgeois, from St.Emilion.
On nose: shy notes of mesquite charcoal, dark vine fruit and a ghost of sandalwood.
On palate: all above flavours, more focused, with red currant, minerals, a ghost of damp eath, and light oak gall....a lighter bodied Bordeaux, displaying garnet red, with some translucence in glass.....almost Burgundian, with it's higher acidity....civilized 13.5% alcohol.
A good food wine if you like this style.
