Cru Bourgeois Vignoble Responsable Haut - Medoc Red Bordeaux Blend

The nose shows cassis, blackberry, cherries, pencil shavings, incense, and hint of smoke. Medium to full body. The palate is ripe yet a bit lean, with a firm acidic backbone. Fruits feels still quite fresh. Mellow tannins.
This Medoc certainly benefits from a great vintage, and tonight it performs very well.

Aroma is dark, earthy with dark berry. Smooth, earthy and smoky flavour.

Needs to decant or at least sit. Pretty tannic otherwise. Mild once decanted but pretty flavorful and versatile. Kate liked this less than I did. 9+ for me, 8.5 for her initially but warming up

Coffee and black currant. Round and rich, still young.

Robe d’un bourgogne foncé... l’herbe fraîchement coupée et le cuir au nez avec une touche d’ancre les petits fruits sont toujours présents. Belle rondeur et long en bouche!
