Château Boutisse
Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend
St. Émilion, Libournais, Bordeaux, France
Delicious nose of orange peel (!) oak flavours and red fruits; high acids and tannins, youthful and oak- and tannin-dominated finish.

Apr 18th, 2016Yes, another baby but I need to know the baseline! Medium-dark ruby with purple hues and light viscosity; the nose is powerful, stunk up the whole room, in a good way, and included blue fruits like plum, spice, some light horse-stable and oak aromas, and my favorite "bathhouse-chlorine mineral scent"; lots of mediums on the palate including for body, tannins, intensity, and length, but the overall impression is that it is a good but not great wine and not worth the 199 SEK (ca 25 USD) I paid. I also don't think it will evolve into greatness because of the lack of fruit and tannin.

Pointless stuff. Okidokey fruit, unripe tannins and earthy additions. Short.

Intense in colour and taste. Lovely nose of black currant and a hint of tobacco. A little young on the palate bit I'll seek out more.
