Badet Clément & Co.
Révélation Vin de Pays d'Oc Cabernet Merlot
Languedoc, Languedoc Roussillon, France
Nice ruby in color with medium intensity, and a wide reddish/ brick rim.
Fruity nose with cherry juice, plums, vanilla, toasted oak, red candy, light vegetables, chocolates, dust, peppercorn, leather, smoke and spices.
Medium bodied and soft, with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry on the palate with plums, cherries, black currants, blueberries, wood, light vanilla, tobacco, peppercorn, espresso, chocolates, vegetables, earth and spices.
Nice finish with fine grained tannins, bitter vegetables and tart cranberries.
A nice blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from France. Easy drinking and good for parties, or just by itself.
Nicely balanced with a soft, refreshing mouthfeel, and nice complexity. A little bitter on the ending and will pair nicely with food.
I Paired it with hard cheeses and light appetizers.
Inexpensive, and a great everyday red. Good right out of the bottle but got better as it opened up (60 minutes).
13% alcohol by volume ( that only means I can drink more of it 😃 ...)

2014. Nice dark aromas, not easily resolved. It might be worth keeping for another year or two to see if it opens up. For $6, it is quite the value at Trader Joe's.

A little too sweet for me, bought it 'cause someone else at TJ's said it was good.
