Saint- Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend

Vintage 2009 | Earthy smell with minerals, still a bit stubborn. Cherries in taste, dark summerfruit, now really good to drink, softened the tannins and very enjoyable. | Paired with beef, mushrooms and corn from the barbecue

A firm wine, well made.

Red forest fruits and sour cherry on the nose. This is very young! The palate is well made with a good acid drive, the same red fruits and sour cherry dancing a tangy tango all along, lively tannins, and a long finish with red berries.

Very noticeable pine notes but not overpowering. Good wine overall if a bit pricey.

Nice discovery

15+/20 (85+/100) Вино с ароматами чернослива, сушеной черники и легкой нотой молочного шоколада. Умеренная кислотность и интенсивные, сухие, шероховатые танины. Чёрные ягоды во вкусе. Сейчас чересчур прямолинейное, но должно улучшиться с выдержкой. (19.03.17) #prowein2017

Way too young!

Needs a bit more cab franc to give more of the earthy flavour.

Poor man's Bordeaux.
