Aurore De Dauzac Grand Vin Margaux 2015 Bordeaux Red Wine, $29.69-$32.99, 90 points, poured beautiful deep purple/reds with a broad clear meniscus and dense stained tears.
Smells were rich blackberry liqueur, ripe black currants, blueberry, red raspberry jam, and hints of roasted coffee with a floral vibe.
This was a big red wine with firm and drying tannins, but so fruity, so nuanced with floral/coffee bean flavors, and complemented with good acidity that I found it quite drinkable.
Finished strong on the blueberry and red raspberry with hints of mint, plum, a bit of oak, and a warm 14% alcohol-infused spiciness.
Varietals were 62% Cabernet Sauvignon and 38% Merlot.
Paired perfectly with my Texas burger.

Seems like there is a lot going on in this wine.
ReplyDeleteVG: It was a complex wine. I can imagine what it's like to do wine tastings with you and Vinomaker.
