Variety: Sangiovese
Color: Ruby Red
Aroma: intense, fresh, red fruit with musk, a little spring flower
Palate: medium boy, light thickness, a little mineral, ripe sweet red fruit with juicy acidity, taste somehow similar to pinot noir, an easy drinking wine that is almost ready upon opening, totally fine drinking young. Maybe a good and cheap alternative to pinot noir?

Chateau de la Riviere, 2010
AOC: Fronsac, Bordeaux
Variety: Merlot, Cabernet Franc
Aroma: 有點混雜不清, 果實味夾帶著earthy, 不是特別strong
Palate: 明顯的earthy merlot, 加上cabernet franc 那種herbal, tobacco的感覺, 明顯的minieral, 讓這支酒在味覺上蠻厚, 蠻雜的感覺, medium+ to full body, 果實甜味有但不是特別集中, 帶有一點苦味(黑巧克力?) 這支酒要讓我暫時跟fronsac說掰掰了嗎?
