Jean Balmont Reserve Merlot 2003

Date: 10 February 2006

Been back in HK for a few days after the CNY break. Friday evening, feeling a little lethargic after overbooking patients for several days, and finally having cleared backlogs of medical reports and paperwork. Time to dispose of bottles of table wine from the Christmas and New Year hampers.

Can't recall which hamper this bottle came from. Aly likes the graphics design of the label. Colour medium red, herbaceous, minty aroma with a just a little fruit in the background. Thin bodied with a tad of citrus flavour. Slightly astringent finish.

More or less what I expected from this Vin De Pays.

Rating: poor
