Wine Review: ??? Since this wine was imported by my parents, I've not been able to find anything in English about it online
My review: This wine was bold, but in a French way. It was a classic example of an old world wine; delicious with food, and overly tannic and harsh without. My first impression of this amazing wine from Bourdeaux was earthy, jammy jam. But, after going outside and putting my nose into some frozen dirt in my backyard, earthy became spices..like the silk road kind of spices. Like very, very spiced jam. This wine packed a bold punch of flavors. And even with a mouth full of food it was still bone dry.
I had this wine with a nice juicy steak.
