Château Le Grand Moulin 2012 Grande Réserve (Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux)

Country: France / Grande Réserve
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château Le Grand Moulin / Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux

The wine is ripe and soft with a body of tannin that sits uneasily within this jammy character. The blend (Merlot 75%, Cabernet Franc 25%, Malbec 5%) was aged 30% in barrel and 70% in stainless steel tanks. It is unbalanced and likely to remain so.
