Ytd nite b4 i slp...drank the red wine which is 'dry' i bought fr macau...actually that wine is nt bad, juz that it need some more yrs of storage, still young...i go found the description fr a website.
Chateau d' Arvigny, Haut-Medoc
Grapes: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc
Location: Cussac-Medoc, Bordeaux
Vinification: vinified traditionally for 3-4wks in stainless steel, then aged for 12-15mth prior to bottling.
Alcohol: 12.5%
What we say: This second wine of the well-known Chateau beaumont comes from Medoc vineyards situated between Margaux and St. Julien. Beautifully made and instantly approachable, this is a great entry point to the wines of the 'Left Bank'.
Colour: Bright red core with pink rim
Aroma: Lifted, youthful aromas of black fruits, leather, woodspice and earth
Palate: Dry and full-bodied wit fresh acidity and well-judged tannins. Fruity and supple, this charming red is soft and stylish on its long and flavoursome finish.
Well aft looking through the description written here...there is a slight taste of earth, very strong woodspice...as for leather maybe nt that obvious to my senses, black fruits??? Dont know wad black fruits taste like so wont know if i did taste any black fruits in this wine...yes its fresh acidity, very acidic taste, coz i read fr the bottle they put contain sulphites...so might be that prob...tannin yup...sort of abit when chew on the tongue, the taste and smell lingers...its nt yet really fruity i would say, maybe putting thie wine a few yrs more would be much better...
Today morning woke up wit a bad dream...which i hope it wont happen:( I dreamt that i was late for my Liverpool match on SUN!!! NO!!! My dad was sending me, then gt mix up...stop at Bedok stadium, thought the match was there...in the end i took a bus, and the bus was so long, i was late for the match...aft that it was blurish...i didnt really hav any idea wad happen nxt, and i dont even wanna think bout it too:( Perhaps i am too tired and excited bout this coming sun:) Really cant wait to see wads the atmosphere like...
