Tasting-Chateau Cerres Sainte Lucie Corbieres


Name: Chateau Serres Sainte Lucie Corbieres
Variety: Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvedre
Region: Corbieres
Country: France
Price: $4.95
Year: NV

Winery review: Superb dark garnet color with a few reflections of dark orange. Intense nose of ripe fruits, spices, and roasted coffee. The palate is rounded and full, with silky matured tannins and hints of vanilla. This wine is rich and powerful with layers of tannins.

My review: This wine had a slight smell of spice to it. The smell was rather funky and I wasn't a fan of it. There was a hint of coffee in the taste of the wine. It is a full wine and definitely silky. This wine is okay. It didn't have a spice taste like I was expecting, which I liked.

Did not try this wine with food.
