St. Émilion, Libournais, Bordeaux, FrancePnP. Drinking nicely and in its window. Black fruit, tar and tobacco nose, more black fruit on the palate along with cigar box, some herbs and maybe a spot of blood. A bit disappointed in the finish that turns somewhat tart and is short. Medium acidity, mostly resolved tannins and reasonable ABV. Nice wine for a heatwave vintage and for one that could be found as low as $25.
