Saint-Èmilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend

Roasted plums, coffee grinds, burnt leather, ratatouille, herbs, power, structure! So much longer to go!

Very deep, dark and intense. Thick deep fruit. Tannins pretty present. Densely packed and powerful. Not a charmer but packs a punch.

Modern style soft Merlot. Easy drinking, but lacking two essential elements: complexity and character

2005, bacon fat and blue fruit. maybe something up with this bottle

If only my husband had a birthday everyday. Complex, layered, bold. Tasting blind we were sure it was a graves, but this was strong and delicate. Loads of flavor and spice and texture. Love.

Gets better each time I taste

Still needs time :)

Still a youngster with a bright future.

Disgusting over extracted custom made for wine critics junk! Yuck!

Great tertiary flavors with balsamic and tobacco/leather. Definitely drank it at the right time. Started to fall off about 90 min into the meal. Quintessential example of right bank. 12/25/23
