Canon-Fronsac Red Bordeaux Blend

2015 vintage. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. If you are looking for blockbusters this might not be your thing. I used to think of Fronsac as very rustic wines that often lacked charm, but these days many fine wines can be found here. This one is all about elegance and gentle extraction. Ripe cassis and flowers in the nose. Gentle and effortless in the mouth, elegant and fresh with good spicy minty length. Lovely. Abv. 13,5 %.

Decent entry level Bordeaux - good fruit in front pallet but little to no finish at all. If it's a Tuesday night and your having a burger go ahead and pop this...but realize the burger will be the showpiece!

Impressed considering the poor selection when I picked this up. A perfectly fine Bordeaux

I had it with a home-grilled surf and turf on a really hot and humid day. Bone-in strip, steamed clams and rice. It wasn't too overpowering but it didn't get lost.

Plenty of tannins, but will the fruit keep up over time?

Delightful opening with soft leather tobacco and some red fruits with a hint of oak

Good wine for its price

Sharp nose. Fruity. No follow through.

Good basic Bordeaux. Reasonable fruit with leather and tobacco notes. Decent value.

Good table wine.
