Haut-Médoc, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Located on the terrace of alluvial gravel bordering the river. The "Village de La Lagune" was a tenant farm in its place and gradually transformed into a wine-growing estate. Dark purple with red fruits spice, cedar and flinty aromas. On the palate blackberry and cherry flavors with cedar, cacao, tobacco and leather notes. Fine sweet tannins, well balanced on long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy mineral notes. Nice!

Medium ruby , light garnet rim . On the nose spicy , earthy red currant , cassis , tobacco . On the palate quite high acidity with some grippy but slight less rustic tannins . Mix of cool red currant , cassis and a spicy tobacco character . Medium length. This is drinkable now with food but will last well over the next 5-10 years

Not a region I'm normally impressed with, but this was very nice. Red cherries. Not black
