Château Roudier
Montagne-Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend
Very good. Well balanced. Medium tannins. Rich dense flavored and hints of vanilla

Back when I couldn’t really afford cellear-able wines, I heard that 2010 was a great vintage for a Bordeaux and bought this at Trader Joe’s. I kept it cellared until now. The wind poured a deep, reddish purple in the glass. I aerated it and let it sit for nearly an hour after that. Although its nose was moderate, the flavors were fantastic. Strawberry, cranberry, other dried fruit. The tannins were intense. With a fairly decent finish. This is all I could hope for from a bottle of Bordeaux. I will probably be revisiting this winery, since it’s so easy through Trader Joe’s. The wine was a perfect accompaniment to the grass fed ribeye steaks we paired it with. Talk about a great deal for just probably $12-$13 at Trader Joe’s. #bordeauxrouge #saintemilion #redwine #traderjoes #rightbank #rightbankbordeaux

Sep 24th, 2023This was bad. Disgusting actually. I was so excited to drink it because of the vintage and the region. I gagged a bit with my first sip so I decanted it and came back in 45 minutes or so whereupon I gagged again. I threw the rest out and drank the last of my Weller Bourbon instead.
