Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Label is a standard style with a ink drawing and such. Maybe a cloudy day in Medoc. Nice dark color. Smells like rose petals. And dark currant jelly? Flavors are good. Currants and pencil shaving mixed with graphite. Sorta savory. This is a decent and enjoyable Medoc. Not extra complex. But it’s nice.

2019 bottle from trader joe’s. Too bitter/astringent. Got slightly better with time.

A little too bold and acidic for my taste. Some earth and leather and seemed well balanced. Good value at TJs but just not in my lane.

Nose: blackberry, clay, and some meaty/savoury smell I can’t quite identify. A slight grainy/breadiness. Light oak. Taste: not bad. Blackberry and bitter tannin - savoury herbs - wild blueberry. It’s good - anonymous medium-weight bordeaux. It probably needs air. 87-88.
