Chateau Carmenere, Medoc

On nose a classic, big claret but only at first. Not that deepness of a big wine but very enjoyable. Hope it will envolve in future, it might be. I assume the Carmenere brings in some nice tension, nice freshness with pure, very clear fruit. Precision. Burgundy Will see in 2 years. Hoping for more but good QRP alreadynow

Color: Deep ruby. Nose: Intense raspberries, Cassis. It's smells like a berry concoction. A hint of spice like Curry. Mouth: Noticeable tannins but they are of excellent quality. Very good length. Rather elegant than a blockbuster wine. The alc. of 13.5% is not noticeable. Medium bodied. It has a long life ahead. Even better the second day: The tannins have completely melted together and provide an inky-like texture. Still intense raspberry notes but after a while cherries are getting predominant. …

By the glass. Intense, with a dense texture, oil-like, tannic finish and not very long. Immediately boring and monotonous. Maybe better in about five years. Por copas. Intenso, de una textura densa, como oleaginosa, final tánico y no muy largo. Inmediatamente aburrido y monótono. Quizás mejor dentro de unos cinco años.

Rauchig aber üppig
