Chateau Carignan
Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend
Côtes De Bordeaux, Bordeaux, France
Earthy and on the dry side. Fruit flavors of blackberry and mild raspberry are mellowed more than expected. Acidity is a bit elevated, but tannins are low. Finish holds some blackberry, plum and mellow oak throughout. Overall I expected more flavor out of the bottle, but the smooth Bordeaux texture is retained.

Intense blackberry nose followed by dark fruits and a somewhat tight tannic finish. Fill my glass again!

A really nice Bordeaux, dark berry, tobacco and pepper. Smooth from start to finish, a nice robust flavor and feel. Picked up for an awesome price 2 yrs ago...$6 on sale but doubt I'll find that again.

dark berries, smoky, dry + soft finish with some nice gams.
Sade's 'a smooth operator' comes to mind...

Nice red - some earthy and smokey essence with a fruity end of cherry and cassis. Was $15 at Central Market and will be a staple for me as long as they carry it. Enjoyed with a spicy chicken dish. Great with some time to breath. Gorgeous legs! Enjoy.

Smoke, tobacco, and earthy for a typical Bordeaux. Pleasant spice. Pretty dry and limited fruit. As always enjoying with grandpa @James Murphy
