Wine Entry : Chateau Des Roches Blanches 1995 (French)

-

1995 and 1996s were notedly better years for bordeaux. This Saint Emilion Grad Cru did not disappoint nor did it stand out significantly. And first things first, I had to even dig out the disintegrated cork and filter the contents.

Smell : Licorice, cocoa, faint blackcurrent scents

Taste : Mild tannins and smooth, slightly over the hill with focus on dark chocloate and cocoa.

After-taste : Still fairly structured length left in the wine.
