Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend

Popped and poured; consumed over two days. No formal notes but this was a more than serviceable Cru Bourgeois that displayed the generosity of the 2015 vintage but delivered the character of the Old World that you want in a Bordeaux. That being said, it’s not a particularly memorable wine.

Blend of Merlot (65%), Cabernet Sauvignon (29%), Cabernet Franc (3%) and Petite Verdot (3%). Dark ruby color. Aromas and flavors of black berry/currant/plum fruit with additional notes of black licorice and tobacco. Nice touch of oak on the nicely rounded finish. Medium bodied with balanced acidity and smooth tannins. Dense, rich and juicy. Thank you for sharing, Kevin Z.

Delicious, smooth, well balanced, hint of vanilla

Classic Left Bank #medoc earthy faint bramble fruit nose; cigar, leather, tart frame and grippy tannins.

Floral, yeasty, a little light. Not worth the price to me.

Not very interesting. A little buttery. It’s Ok.

Fine initial taste. Has a bitter aftertaste.

Nice blend.

Good not great. Good QPR at $25. High tannins, mod plus acidity. Could use 2-3 years in cellar.

Drinking really well right now. Well balanced. Drink these while your other 2015s and 2016s are aging. Great value!
