Lots of red and lack fruit, simple and a little boring but very easy to drink. 3.0

Fruit forward, but not too sweet. Chilled, it was an excellent aperitif.

(***) Apple, papaya, apricot play nicely in this rich bodied, barely dry white blend. Finish is a little short, being its only real strike against it.

A beautiful light ruby color with a light red rim.

Earthy on the nose with blueberries, plums, barnyard, oak, vanilla, earth, forest floor, pencil lead, dark chocolates, smoke, mediterranean spices and light black pepper.

Light-bodied with medium plus acidity and long legs.

Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, blueberries, plums, tart cherries, earth, barnyard, pencil shavings, coffee, tobacco, green vegetables, bell pepper, peppercorn, cloves and forest floor.

Medium finish with extremely soft tannins.

An average red wine from Bordeaux, France. Nicely balanced and earthy. Drinks nicely as an everyday wine, but better with food. Felt a little watery to me, without enough of a structure.

12% alcohol by volume.

Good value, interesting blend. Southern Rhone meets Bordeaux. Lots of earth & funk, but fruit too.

No notes, 10 years old merlot blend from Gascogne. Easy going, not dead, no tannins
