15.0 / 20 |
Region: Bordeaux
Country: France
Deep red in the glass, this Bordeaux failed to impress me.
The nose showed some red fruit along with vanilla in the mix, but everything seemed too subdued and distant. It got a little better with some time in the glass, revealing some green peppers and opening up a bit. But still, something lacked.
This impression continued to the taste itself. The wine seemed inexpressive, neither revealing fruit nor giving us other flavors. Maybe some red fruits or spices, but on the whole a bland taste.
Did it need more time in the glass? Did it need more time in the bottle? Not sure what to make of this wine.
