Ch. Greysac Bordeaux '11
France, Bordeaux, Medoc
Bordeaux blend (Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon)
$20ish
Poundability: 3/5
Value: 3/5
Overall: 3/5
Dark burgundy color, good condition with nose of blueberries and bramble. Medium body.
Extremely strong blueberry and bright berries at first sip. Mixed with lighter earthy, soil flavors but a much stronger fruit profile then the '10. Could taste the heavy Merlot (60%) backbone.
Nice tannins with well balanced acidity. Lacked a bit of character but for $20 a bottle I wouldn't be upset at all. Cool bottle and for the price would definitely repeat and recommend.
Picture pending.
