Entre-Deux-Mers, Bordeaux, France
This precocious rojado franc evokes memories of vintners of yore. It begins capriciously with marbled flavor facets. Later, it follows with oodles of black currant and elderberry. Finally, it mellows like a dachshund after a morning run and a bowl of breakfast. You will not be disappointed by this Lagarde production. Blessings to all.

Tannic and spicy with bold red fruits such as red currant and dark red plums. Excellent and will do well with aging and decanting.

Tonight's Planet Bordeaux tasting winner for me. Organic blend of Merlot, Cab Sauv, and Cab Franc.

Apr 27th, 2024A deep garnet color, with aromas of red currants, raspberry, and cherry. On the palate, alcohol is medium, acidity is high, tannin is medium with a smooth finish. A little bit of residual sugar and a little bit of tobacco and anise on the finish. A beautifully blended and balanced wine. Overall very good, almost outstanding!

Bought at John’s for $15. Yummy, but not amazing. Solid wine though if I’m looking for something at John’s.
