Fresh asphalt is such a classic descriptor for old left bank. Sounds like it showed up exactly as expected.

Carruades isnt the main wine. I presume you know that, but the title is kinda misleading.

Posting the second wine but calling it the Grand Vin in the title. Tasting note is just asphalt. Depressing stemware. 2026 is off with a bang on /r/wine!

I had that Carruades out of Magnum probably around the year 2000 and it was still pretty solid back then.

Just looking at that color I can tell how it tastes and it ain’t pretty.

It’s a Carruades….BIG difference. This one not meant to be aged so long
