It’s #BastilleDay 🇫🇷 tomorrow, aka France’s National Day. Which means you probably need to get some French wine 😜
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To help celebrate I’ve teamed up with Australian wine distributor Kollaras to try some of their French wines. This #sample of the Maison Castel 2016 Côtes du Rhône made from Grenache and Syrah grapes went down a treat 👌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mr Spittoon couldn’t get enough of it, so he was in charge of the tasting note:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👀 Deep red
👃🏻 Dry aged meats, black pepper spice & strawberries
👅 Very smooth and rounded, subtle vanilla, acidity at the finish
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #tcweekdaywine
