St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend

Jammy dark berries with rich tobacco flavors (almost vanilla-y). Very dry.

A so so Bordeaux. Not bad. But not good enough. Something off w the nose.

Sahara levels of dryness

Green fruit and austere

Cassis and blackberries good fruit no big oak notes

Fruity and good.

Aromas slowly open from freshly cut wood planks doused in raspberry, to deeper black cherry, cocoa & cinnamon. Notes of dark soil follow through from the nose to the palate, with an elegant raspberry, stewed plum, violet & fennel. Fine powdery tannins with a dry oaken finish of blackberry seeds, leather & tobacco.

A very pleasant wine with nice fruity dryness. Clearly, decanting it at least 1 hr works best
Definitely my new go to for everyday night

Delicious Bordeaux. Enjoyed at Valentine dinner.

Jammy, tobacco as the nose develops, medium (-) acidity, medium + alcohol

2009 a little tough and tonic on opening but settled medium body Vanita with strawberries and plums on a smokey leather background Good value
