Tasting Notes

The wine is lively, well balanced and full of freshness in the attack, with the return of the rich, very ripe black fruit notes, present yet delicate tannin, and a touch of black pepper which makes this a wine with great future promise

History

Whilst 2013 was a great vintage for the whites, this was less generally evident for Bordeaux reds. Despite low yields, BROWN red 2013 has light tannins and a smoky bouquet typical of Cabernet Sauvignon (the main variety of the blend) grown in gravel soils. This is a fresh wine with a delicately fruity aromatic expression.

Regional Information

No! Some body but sharp and tannic. Terrible VFM.

Disappointing

Normally a really good wine despite not being a classed growth, but this (2013) was obviously not a good year.

Way past its best
