CHATEAU DOYAC 2005
REGION = Bordeaux - Haut-Medoc
**Haut-Medoc wines have complex aromas of red and black berries, as well of liquorice, menthol, and spicy aromas. Aged in oak barrels, they offer elegant and pleasant woody aromas. As they age, they develop wonderful bouqets of animal aromas (leather, furs), roasted aromas (moka), prune, cedar, and truffle. These are lively, bright, generous and powerful, but never excessive**
GRAPE = Cabernet Sauvignon blended with Merlot
**Cabernet Sauvignon is the epitome of the intense blackcurranty style of red wine. It's never among the lightest of reds and always has a tannic backbone. The best mature slowly to balance sweet blackcurrant flavors with a scent of cedar, cigar boxes and lead pencil shavings. Often blended with Merlot for richer flavor**
ONLINE REVIEW: Generous, not too powerful with a delicate bouqet of vanilla and black fruits... full bodied, bright and distinguished.
PRICE: $17.99
MODERATORS' NOTES:
1. John says: Full-flavored - Young-tasting, soft, slightly sour;
