Tasting - Château Serres Sainte Lucie Corbières



Château Serres Sainte Lucie Corbières
Variety:  Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre
Region:  Corbières
Country:  France
Price:  $4.95
Shop 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.
Personal Review:  Smells unfortunate.  Tastes very strange.  Also, strange texture.  Spice finish. Slight hint of coffee and vanilla but vanilla extract.   14% alcohol.
Food Pairing:  not tasted with food
