St Emilion 1GCCB. This is an extremely nose-driven wine. Divine and explosive bouquet of sweet black fruits and violets. Alluring, intense and impressive. Disappointingly, the taste test does not live up to the promise. Body lacks sufficient weight, what some would term 'elegant'. Classy sour cherries and some cola. Sure I can taste the rounded, polished texture w no sharp edges but frankly nothing much else impresses. Baffled w the high scores - perhaps it's in a dumb phase now. Expensive and unsatisfying (7.9/10).
