Weekly tasting group #105; Bordeaux (@ SB): Cherries, green herbs and some licorice in the bouquet. On the palate juicy dark and red fruits, some bell pepper, green and a bit sticky tannin. Also some yoghurt, but overall a generic and supple wine. Drink around 2016.

Immediately out the bottle this wine is very acidic, atringent, and overly tannic. Nothing but pungency from the nose on immediate opening. Give an hour of air and the blackerries and cassis come through, bits of chocolate, both nose and taste. Mild to full bodied with a short finish. For the price, I wouldn't expect more. Let it breathe!
