Bordeaux, France
Black and red cassis, a little astringent, black licorice, dark dry earth, gravel, soft mid minerality, some soft leather. Not awful for a superior. Then, it is an 09.

This is the right way to make cheap Bordeaux. This one was actually de stemmed it seems; shocking. Fruit was picked ripe, nice and plummy with modest structure, and ages probably have in tank and half in well toasted cheap used oak.

Бруснично, ваниль, хьюмидор, элегантно. Аккуратное базовое Бордо, приятное, но ничем не поражающее.

Shades of dull purple, a bit cloudy, and a bit copper tone on the rim. Nose of nice ripe black cherry, strawberry, aldehyde, vanilla, spice, smooth in the nasal cavity, and hint of oak note. Nose is good and mature. Taste follows the nose with addition of mature tannins, slightly sweet, and tasty. Aftertaste is medium and mellow. Peak time now. Enjoy her now.
