Les Hauts de Granget Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend

Les Hauts De Granget Transparant mörk tegelröd. Varm doft av mörk frukt. Ceder, kaffe lite läder på slutet. Behaglig doft. Medelfyllig varm frukt. Lite alkoholsting. Redigt med syra. Tyvär bär inte frukten eller de fina pimpstensliknande tanninerna upo syran. Avslutas med gräsig bitterhet. Ett vin som blivit bättre i källaren. Men, nä. Det räcker inte. För obalanserat, för mkt syra som stör. Det var sista flaskan. Köper inte fler.

Concentrated, purple-red color, viscous and lots of staining tears; on the nose it is youthful, both red and dark fruit, red dominates, and it lacks secondary aromas; high alcohol (says 14, but is likely more), high acid, tannic, and the fruits are confirmed on the palate. Unfortunately it is unbalanced and dominated by alcohol and tannin on the finish. More proof that simpler B'ds even at this price just don't fly. There is no such thing as a Bargain Bordeaux.

Deep ruby color.
Aromas of cherry, tomato, tomato leaf.
Dry. Flavors of cherry, tomato leaf, plum, dried tomato. Medium-rich, chewy tannins.

Intensity: 4/4
Complexity: 3/5
Balance: 4/5
Finish: 4/5

Medium-bodied, slightly earthy, complex. Went great with our raclette party.

Entrecôte och potato’s in the Owen. Easy going vibe. Decanted it’s more than ok but no smash hit for the price.

Prune tasting. Smooth drinking. Tannins.

Oak, red fruit, alcohol, astringency. An athletic red wine. Delicious.

Not value for money

Light and fruity. Not a bad wine at all for a good dinner
