Château Tour St. Christophe St. Émilion Grand Cru 2015 Bordeaux Red Wine, $27.62-$32.49, 92 points, poured deep purple/reds, more red than purple, with a broad clear wine ring and dense sticky stained legs.
Aromas were a lovely cornucopia of black fruits, cedar, and chocolate.
Near full-bodied, quite dry, showing good acidity, and ubiquitous grainy tannins all coalescing to support a bounty of black and red fruit nuanced with truffle.
Finished long on the fading palate, tobacco, and an alcohol (15%) inspirited pepper spiciness.

"Nuanced with truffle" - I like that.
ReplyDeleteAs well as the truffle, I love the word nuanced.
