Sequins %26 Sawdust

Domaine de la Chanteleuserie

Cuvée Alouettes Bourgueil Cabernet Franc 2016

Nose has recently crushed granite, grilled/warmed black cherry, dried citrus, (minor) moist cedar sawdust, licorice, red Twizzlers© candy and white pepper.

Palate has ripe cherry, dried cherry, fresh orange zest, dark chocolate shavings, dried blueberries, all very round and complete on the palate. Medium-short finish. Definite improvement with additional age!

About two years since our last bottle, doing quite well this evening, can hold another 4-6Y (2024-26) in proper storage.

Chardonnay is not my favorite as you never know what you are getting. This was fluke purchase and was really good. — 5 years ago
