Tasting notes

Deep red colour. Greenish, herbacious nose. The nose shows a maturing wine and has quite good intensity. Typical cabernet-notes of bell peppers, chili, grass. Some lead-pencil and florality. Medium bodied Bordeaux. Juicy and soft style. Seems mature with fruit on the slight green side. Bell peppers, grass. Some lead-pencil. Very soft structure, lacking some backbone. Decent acids. Little tannins on the finish. A little short taste. Good wine, especially for the price. But no great Bordeaux.
