Tasting notes:

It probably says something that this is the bottle I took home with me, and it was even better the following day.  Deep purple in colour, this has a classic Bordeaux profile, and really shows what Fronsac can do.  Very dark fruit, with blackberries, plums and a hint of chocolate, with a floral quality that adds elegance and freshness.  The palate has a touch of stewed cherries and vanilla summer pudding, and a beautiful balance of supple tannins and the deep fruit. Intense but never overblown, and utterly delicious. (Siobhan Turner MW)
