Name: Chateau des Landes
Variety: Bordeaux blend (14% Alcohol)
Region: Lussac Saint-Emillon
Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $12
My Review: This wine is a dark plum color with a hint of brown around the edges. It appears to be relatively full-bodied with moderate legs. This wine smells very fruity; I smell raspberries, strawberries, and cherries. I also smell a creamy vanilla aroma. This wine is very smooth with mild tannins.
Winery Review: The 2010 Chateau Des Landes Lussac-Saint-Emilion begins with pleasant aromas of black cherry, oak, plum, a little cedar and even a whiff of balsam wood. The wine tastes rich on the palate with more plum and black cherry along with a good dose of oak that continues into the dry, dusty tannin filled finish.
I did not drink this with food
I would drink this again (8.5/10)
