Chateau/Producer: | D'Agassac | Wine Name: | Haut-Medoc | Country: | France | Region: | Haut Medoc | Wine Score: | 87 | Notes: | This is a nice bordeaux. The scent is light, yet rich, and it has a pretty ruby color. For now, it needs a nice long time to breathe to be at its best. Tasted on opening, it was quite tannic, and fairly acidic. After breathing for about an hour, the tannins had subsided somewhat, revealing more sweetness and more fruitiness, but it kept a strong acidic quality. I recommend drinking later, or giving it a few hours to breathe before drinking. With a good 3-hour breathe, the wine should balance nicely. | Tasting Date: | 2004-06-19 | Varietal: | Merlot 50%, Cab. Sauvignon 47%, Cab.
