Cru Bourgeois Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

2018 vintage. The only Pauillac in the 2020 Cru Bourgeois classification ( but most Pauillacs are Crus Classés, and some of the others are not interested to be Cru Bourgeois).

Good inexpensive Bordeaux. Hard to find these days.

No life to this one. Falls flat from start to finish.

Good bordeaux not so special

Good Bordeaux - solid not special. Better after some good air. Quite easy

Easy to finish the bottle quickly, even though 100 degrees outside. #bordeaux #french

Part of a Cabernet Sauvignon tasting. Very nice.

Pauillac and soccer because ... why not ? 🤣 not the best Pauillac I’ve had though... nose of black currant and a vegetal touch : fresh cut herbs. A touch of spices too, maybe black pepper. The palate tends to get toward acidity. Dusty, pointy tannins, black currant all along the way, more on the length than the width which is peculiar for a pauillac. Moderately long finish with that dust feeling and black currant till the end. It could have been a haut medoc or any given appelation from the northern left bank for all I know. Hard to get the pauillac tells there. Not bad neither

Best served unchilled. Rich and soothing 💕💕💕

Rustic tannin, ripe fruit, graphite
