Country of origin: France
Wine appellation: Languedoc-Roussillon
Vintage: 2007
Alcohol content: 14.5%
Color: deep black red
Bouquet: overripe black sour cherries, blackberries, black chocolate, hint of coffee
Taste: full body, canned black cherries, round style, huge fruit accompanied by some spiciness, smooth tannis, black chocolate, warm and lingering longer finish
Recommended food pairing: duck liver pate
Overall score: 4+8+12+7+7=88
Price CZK 260
Stopper: single piece of cork
Very nice indeed. Huge fruit, however nicely balanced by oak. Needs to be slightly more chilled due to higher alcohol. Lovers of New World wines would love this wine:-). For comparison see my tasting from November 2012.
