chestnut and bay leaf

The wine continues to evolve in the mouth with persistence

Sappy and penetrating on the palate

Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting

with lots of kirsch and dark berry fruits

Meteor, Perseid Cabernet Sauvignon other_regions chestnut and bay leaf(14. 7% alcohol), Bright medium ruby. Pungent aromas of blackberry, cassis, licorice pastille and minerals are lifted by herbal and violet nuances. Juicy, savory and tight, offering high pitched flavors of black fruits, spicy herbs and bitter chocolate oak. No shortage of flavor intensity or energy but this extremely primary wine still needs time to expand in bottle. Seems to rely more on its acidity than on its tannic edge for structure. This wine
