2003 Chateau do Mourre du Tendre is from France’s Côtes du Rhône region.Brick red color. Earthy. Red fruit and floral notes. Maybe even cigar box or smoky notes… Regardless, somewhat complex in nature. It’s a little hard to describe but overall it has a really lovely aroma. Medium bodied. Very dry with a medium finish.
This is a good wine, especially for the money. A solid B which sells for $13 at Astor Wines.
I should also note that I just finished reading Kermit Lynch’s Adventures on the Wine Route and just felt the need to have a solid unassuming French red. I’m glad I did!
