Tasting - Chateau Pericou 2006



Name: Chateau Pericou 2006
Variety: Bordeaux blend
Region: Bordeaux
Country: France
Year: 2006
Price: $9.95

Winery Review: None

My Review: This wine smelled alcoholic, possibly because of the vintage year. It was pretty cheap, and I bought this before I learned that older wines weren't necessarily better, so I think the wine may have gone bad. I also had a minty scent which stayed in your nose for some time after smelling. The taste was also alcoholic and I couldn't taste many fruits besides ripe cherry. It also stung my mouth a little when swishing it around so it was pretty acidic. I regretted the purchase.
