Name: Chateau L'Insoumise Caresse du Terroir 2012 Bordeaux
Variety: 60% Merlot, 15% Malbec, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc
Region: Bordeaux
Country: France
Year: 2012
Price: ~$12
Review(Or Lack Thereof): I got this wine from the recommendation of the wine specialist at Kroger. I have not been able to find much in the way of tasting notes or reviews besides for the 2011 vintage on Vivino.
My Review: When I first smelled this wine, I got some dirty laundry, but after getting past that, there was plum, vegetal, and hints of spices. There were mild tannins, earthy tastes, and not much fruit beside subtle plum. Might need a good cheese to enjoy this wine properly.
