Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux

Medium

Cork

Ripe fruits with a fragranced nose. Succulent and juicy initially, a good rush of red and black fruits but they settle quite quickly with the mineral, saline notes coming into play as well as soft liquorice and clove spices around the edges. The overall texture is smooth with velvety tannins that settle on the tongue but at the moment the darker, savoury notes are dominating the fruit. It doesn't feel totally harmonious with the rustic spice sticking out a little but the initial impact was good. Nice potential here.
