Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend

Sexy beast, this was rumored to have been great in en premier and I can confirm that it is true.

A little lite and delicate but wonderful nose of earth, leather and spice. Strong tannin and structure. Totally my style

Quite simply one of the best bottles of wine I’ve ever had, on my 40th birthday. Deep, earthy, but so smooth and elegant. Coats the mouth with joy.

Everyone loved a bit more than me but it was very good - proper old school 2011 Bordeaux - classic, delicious, full. A 40th bottle for my bro

Starting to soften up a bit but was still in a bit of a tannic stage without the fruits really unfurling themselves.

(15.5/20) В аромате доминируют тона выдержки в дубовых бочках (кофе, поджаренный хлеб), первичные ягодные ароматы едва различимы. Свежая кислотность и гладкие танины. Много "дуба" во вкусе.

Very refreshing, not too overwhelming! Great for summer. Fruity with a bit of bitterness.

Classic style Bordeaux. Plenty of earthy notes with hints of tobacco.

Good!
