Tasting - Chateau la Roberterie Bordeaux

 
Name:Chateau la Roberterie
Variety:Bordeaux Red Blend
Region:Bordeaux
Country:France
Year:2016
Price:$10




Winery Review:

Fruity and floral flavors, with red fruit and currant aromas, highlighted by violet notes. The palate is supple and restrained on the tannins. Its fresh acidity underlines the fruity aromas.

Wine Folly: 

Bordeaux Blend (p. 83) Main note is currant, some graphite and chocolate. maybe herbs. Less tannin than you'd think and more acidity. This bottle is bone dry. We decanted for 60+ mins as recommended.







My Review: 

This was more acidic then I'd have expected. Pretty good. I think it would have preferred this with a steak. I like the acid and the wet tobacco secondary notes. 9/14.
