2003 Chateau du Cedre Heritage

Produced from the highly tannic Tannat grape. Totally opaque black purple colour with black purple hue. Aroma of blackberry, plum, black cherry and mocha. The palate has a strong black cherry liquorice character which is over ridden by very dry, chalky tannins which totally swamp the fruit and last well into the aftertaste.
Cellar 3-4 years (2008-2009)
Alc/Vol: 13.5%
