Château Maine d'Arman
Côtes de Bourg Red Bordeaux Blend
Very drinkable right out of the gate. Soft tannins and layers of fruit. Great value. Also last hooray before my dry month. 😔

Jan 6th, 2020I think I like this wine more than most. That written, it deserves some decanting, as that's, in this wine, where the magic lies. So, there 's a good amount of spice on the nose and first touch of one's lips and beyond complimented by a hint of licorice overwhelmed by raspberries and blueberries. It teases you with the anticipation of s long finish, but falls short of the finish line. While that is a limiting factor in the world of Bordeaux , it's working for me as I munch on veggies and tuna slices right off the boat at my beloved SoundSide Restaurant , in Morehead City, NC. (Yes, I could do this with beef tartare , but I live at the beach😎). Plus, you know that a town with such a name is righteous in so many ways..😎 cheers! PS deserves more conversation on how it seems to have pulled more from the rocks than the soil....
