Strength of the vintage. Still a little singular and fruit driven

HWT - not sure of price but surprisingly light for a 15% which is also very high ABV for a French wine. Not as earthy as you’d expect. We preferred unaerated which was a surprise.

Good pairing with pork chop from Charlestons (at home). Dry tannins but a little watery. Dark but muted fruit.

May dinner. French/Julia Child- inspired. Drank with pan-broiled steak, stuffed mushroom, garlic mash & asparagus. Perfect.

Saint-Emillion! Dark as night. Smells like fragrant brush and applewood. Flavors are lovely. Chewy, ripe and fresh. Classic.
