Tasting - Col Des Vents Corbieres

Name: Col Des Vents
Variety: Corbieres
Region:
Country: France
Year: 2009
Price: $7.95

Winery Review:  50% Carignan, 35% Grenache, 15% Syrah.
Brambly berry, cherry and raspberry, spices, black pepper…all are present in this authentic French country wine.


My review:  Another very dark colored wine.  The nose of this wine was strong with cherry, apple, orange and other citrus smells.  The wine did not have a very flavorful taste but was full of texture.  The was was silky but tannic with a bite at the end.  The aftertaste was soft.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
