Chateau Tour Saint-Vincent Bordeaux 2009 Cru Bourgeois

Variety: 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot

Country of origin: France
Wine appellation: Bordeaux, Médoc
Vintage: 2009
Alcohol content: 13.5%
Color: medium ruby red
Bouquet: expressive, black sour cherries, minerality, brambles, hint of chocolate
Taste: medium to full body, big fruit (most likely due to very hot 2009 vintage) - black sour cherries, black currant, perfect acidity, good tannins (still young though), freshness, lots of everything, longer finish
Overall score: 4+8+12+7+7=88
Price: CZK 349
Stopper: single piece cork
I quite like this Bordeaux, it is full of everything, but it really needs ageing to get everything together. I will buy few more bottles to check the ageing process:-)
