WTN: Chateau Laborie 2005

by Bruce Hayes » Sun Aug 22, 2010 12:11 pm

AC Côtes de Castillon
Sylvie Chassagne & Nicole Cruzel, Prop.

A Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon blend.

Rich cherry red in the glass.

Earthy, smoky on on the nose.

Medium weight, dusty, earthy, cherry, plummy, leather, smoke, charred, tea, high acidity at the end, very mature notes and the wine seemed to dry out rather quickly.

Very acidic and rather dirty on the finish.

Not very good.

Purchased at $
13.95 (Canadian).
