Bordeaux Supérieur Merlot - Cabernet Sauvignon

2014 vintage. Better on the palate than the nose, which is muted with notes of dried earth and dried fruit. The palate is brighter with red raspberry, plum and soft cherry accents, and is very drinkable, but isn't the best representation of right bank Bordeaux.

Brought home from Paris

Nice Bordeaux not overly sweet

Funky European thing, but very approachable.

Decent daily drinker!

So good to be drinking this bottle again… the 2014 vintage was what started my obsession with French Bordeaux’s year ago. Glad to report this is still a fantastic bottle! Fruity and well balanced. Tannic and fruity. I just love this wine and will continue buying it, for the price it’s a great R bank Bordeaux. #nostalgia #bordeaux

With cherry lamb dish

Let air for a while to mellow out aggressive tannins. Young red color. Nose of leather/berry/earth. Strong cherry/berry taste

Yummy and smooth.

Color of ruby with light purple on the rim. Just a bit cloudy. Nose of black cherry, spice, a bit oak, strength of alcohol, a bit perfume. Yet, nose fades away quite fast and then dominated by alcohol. Taste of backbones of tannins, slightly sweet from dark fruits and vanilla, a bit spice, a bit leafy, zesty and mineral, yet not very fragrant. Aftertaste is some more sweetness and tannins. Ok.
