Saint-Chinian Special Reserve 2009 (France)


Nose: Pretty sharp

Taste: Little bit bitter, but not upfront. Sort of nondescript.

Finish: Pretty bitter

What they say: Strong concentrated rich bouquet of wild fruits and berries. Well-rounded with silky tannins.

What we say: V - "I'm not down with the bitter aftertaste."

Rating: 5
