Cuvée Prestige Bordeaux Supérieur Red Bordeaux Blend

Jason had this 11 years ago

There are better Bordeaux blends for the price.

It was an ok Bordeaux. Doesn't have the complexity or finish I am looking for.

Cherry fruit herbs and toasty oak background soft tannins

Nice Bordeaux!

Lighter body than what I was looking for but I’m not displeased. Prominent but not enduring oak with fruits rouges and plum.

2020 vintage. Gratuitous oak in league with a decent fruit offering. Light-medium body. Another cheap chicken from Trader Joe's at $9.99 a bottle. Will end up picking up a few more bottles to have handy. 12.22.23.

Hmmm, Trader Joe's value Bordeaux. Plum, Cherry, Blackstrap molasse, chocolate, pencil lead, and pepper. Presents a sweet element on the midpalate. Nuances are subtle. I had to dig! Decent mesh between fruit, minerals, and acidit. A little Band Aid thing is going on in the finish. 90 min decant. Between an 8.6 and 8.7.

Smooth
