Country: France
Vintage: 2019

Today I’m going to try my first Bordeaux blend! Feel like, with how much the region is talked about, it’s a must-try! Looking at its entry in Wine Folly (pg 83), it provides the following tasting notes:
Black currant
Black Cheery
Graphtite!?
Chocolate
Dried Herbs
It also describes it as having a strong body, strong tannins, and medium-low acidity.
Alright, time to taste! First impression: this is really delicious! I really can detect the chocolate, and a little bit of the dried herbs. I can’t taste the graphite (yay?). Overall I would definitely recommend trying this type of wine, although, having only tried this particular bottle, I don’t have a reference point to say whether this particular brand and vintage is a good choice.
