It's only wine but I like it

Light-medium bodied red Bordeaux here, from the excellent 2015. Plenty of crisp red fruit with mild tannin and some pleasant tartness. Not particularly complex, but very well made and, most importantly, rather tasty. And easy multiple bottle purchase Tasted Oct 2021.

Light Drinking Bordeaux which is showing some age on the rim, is probably good for two more years.

Medium minus acidity and tannins that goes away quickly and the red fruit follows the same trend, with remaining notes of Leather and herbs at the end.
