Château Du Gazin
Canon-Fronsac Red Bordeaux Blend
Canon-Fronsac, Libournais, Bordeaux, France
Enough age to bring the fruit intensity down a notch, & man that’s some good fruit- emphasis on the cassis & blackberries. Usually not a mega fan of Bordeaux, but this fit the bill for a shared bottle with friends, drink outside on the banks of the Hudson.
