Château Cantebau
Château de Rochemorin Pessac-Léognan White Bordeaux Blend
Blocked MF adds great acidic drive here which is balanced by leesy Battonage notes and toasty oak. Clever wine. Should age nicely. Great Q/P-ratio.

Feb 23rd, 2016This is actually the white that I am reviewing, though it isn't one of the choices provided by the app. I don't know if I have a bad bottle, but this wine is tremendously unappealing. It is tight and astringent with absolutely no bloom on the palate. I love wines that are austere, but this is downright stingy. Maybe I should have decanted it. From top to bottom it tastes like something that has been open in my fridge for three weeks right out of the bottle. I have a second bottle, and I will edit as needed, based on my experience with that one.
