Premier Rendez-Vous Sauvignon Blanc — 5 years ago
Rich, fruity aroma, dry and crisp — 7 years ago
That it’s 6 yrs of age & presents as young & fresh as it does says a lot about its Tannat core- 60% Tannat, the rest Cabernet Sauvignon & Cab Franc. Juicy but a secondary wave of tannic undertow. Red fruited & delish. For about 15$ a cool choice for a party wine. Intro to a raucous family night watching a great Knicks win. — 8 months ago
My prior experience with Tannat was limited to a bottle of Bodega Garzon, and I was not really a fan. This bottle gives me new perspective about the variety.
A blend of Tannat/CS/CF (60/20/20), it opens with ripe black fruits tinged with peppery spices, dark cocoa, cherry cola, and just hint of barnyard. Velvety palate with surprisingly polished tannins.
My first Madiran. Chateau Bouscassé is the home estate of Alain Brumont who also owns the more famous Chateau Montus. — 2 years ago
Aromat - Miód wielokwiatowy — 5 years ago
No notes, to go along arguably the best cassoulet in the region. Black fruits on the nose, a bit of leather too. Great acid drive and great width, nice tannins all along and fine tannins that kick in the rear before a nice and delicate finish. Great stuff and pairing made in heaven. — 2 years ago

[80% Tannat, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon] Leather, forest floor, maybe a little Brett, excellent structure and depth, despite its age, seems like it can easily age another 10-15 years, long, lingering finish, excellent Madiran! — 5 days ago
