St. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend

Chocolate brownie and mud puddle, baked mincemeat pie with light spicing, vanilla seed, coffee bean, thyme. Silky mouthfeel showing cherrywood and crispy bay leaf, earl grey tea, fallen oak, coffee soaked puffball mushroom, smoky pencil, peppercorn and lavender. A pleasure from end to end, and focused.

Should be really lovely in 4-5 years.

Still fresh in the bottle. Lean juicy mid red fruits, blackberries, touch of cola, dry crush rocks, leather, underbrush with nice acidity.

Blackberry and red cherry on the nose with some leather. Palate mirrors the nose. Very smooth. Great long finish, a little cocoa on the back end. Still young and has great potential.

Beautiful example of a Bordeaux. Aging nicely, can drink now or wait.

This is still a youngster. Tannins are tight. Fruit on the front pallet is like cranberry with coco. Smooth till the back part of the pallet. It needs another 3-5 years in cellars.

Lots of green viney ripeness. Tons of tannin and acidity.
