Again with the crazy cursive label. The chateau looks modest at least. Lighter ruby red color. Smells nice. Flowers and funk? Hint of citrus. Wow cigar box on the palate. Or is that tomato’s? Leaf o Tom. Also nuts in there. This very French Bordeaux stuff. Olives, soil, unsweetened dark chocolate, coffee. But it’s well done. Tasty stuff.
