Tasting - Château Serres Sainte Lucie Corbières



Name:  Château Serres Sainte Lucie Corbières

Variety: Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre
Region: Corbières
Country: France
Year: 2009
Price: $4.95


Winery 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.  

My Review: The nose was strong and unappealing. It smelled like dirty veggies or vegetables and some moldy dirt. I didn't let it ruin what the taste might be like. It was difficult to drink. The taste was intense, very acidic with a spicy finish. This was my least favorite wine of all time!

I did not have it with any food.
