Chateau Tourteran, Haut-Médoc, Bordeaux, 2010

Tasting: Crus Bourgeois 2010

Delicate if slightly herbaceous nose, but acceptably so. Medium-bodied, graceful, rather light, but has some wispy charm. But it doesn’t develop on the palate and the tannins are a bit scrawny. Medium length.

Tasting: Crus Bourgeois 2010

Nose attractive and balanced, cassis and damp earth, cedarwood, palate fresh with raspberry acidity and cranberry tannin.

Tasting: Crus Bourgeois 2010

Fresh red and black berry fruit on the nose, attractive and quite supple fruit on the palate, just a little green on the finish, but this will blend out, a nice wine for mid term drinking.
