The first bottle of Costco Christmas Bordeaux box (Christmas arrived early this year). It's different from 2018. Still complex taste, but sour cherry is the most prominent. No chalk in the taste this year. Spices, and a smoky hint.
Was very good with sous vide tuna.
Very good wine courtesy of Costco. Strong sour cherry note in the nose and taste. Smoky notes, good with BBQ. Some spice, a hint of old leather. Almost no sugar.
Was very good with grilled shrimp pizza. And yes, you can enjoy red wine with grilled shrimp.
Very nice wine. From Provence, quite similar to Rhone wines, but not from Appelation Contrellee. Rich nose and taste. Hints of chokeberry, black currant, old leather. After some time on the air, a hint of plum. Great aftertaste.
Was very good with grilled venison burgers.
