Original Creative Table Baby Shower

Floridène - Graves Chateau Ferran

Dear readers, the favorite in full swing. This is an opportunity to discover wines, those that are not usually found on the shelves during the year. Gold they were replenished at Casino. I bought a few bottles of Pieuré-Lichine € 14.95.
The next day I fall, again at Casino on a Clos Floridène. It is a wine that I tasted once, and that a colleague told me regularly the greater good. A € 9.50 in the 2005 vintage is a bargain. I take the last bottle.
Marc gives me the name of the wine of God drops. I've already forgotten. But more importantly, we planned a wine tasting: wine of God versus drops of very good Bordeaux. One thing is sure, the wine Drops of God will have his post on this blog.

We taste the wine with the meal. Then, after this, I use a glass to write this post.
The dress shows a beautiful ruby. Deep and uniform, it does not trace of evolution.
The nose is immediately quite charming. I see hints of red fruits, plum. Notes livestock are present and result of smoking and leather.
palate is rather round and harmonious. The tannins and acidity of the wine blend into a whole beguiling, well-balanced offering lots of fun. This wine, at a time, a beautiful but delicate sleek, seductive aroma that is expressed. All that invades the mouth. Very good.
Good length for a wine of such finesse and retro light on the kernel.
Okay.

LGDD's note for this wine: 16 to 16.5 / 20.

And of course, your comments are always welcome.

Cheers, NL
