Calvet Bordeaux Reserve Red 2000

Bordeaux, FranceBig coffee oak, dill, green olive, tobacco earthy aromas with some cherry spice and leafy notes. More cedar and spicy, peppery, green olive, cherry flavours with some prune and coffee notes. It's ripe, round and quite supple with a touch of dry tannin on the finish. A rounder, suppler new-style Bordeaux at an affordable price that still reflects some terroir. Good value.Tasted: 13 July 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
