Marquis De Colbert Utiel-Requena Reserva 2017

 

Garnet hue with some opacity and a nice bouquet of interesting red fruits, some dried, slik dried cranberry...

Palate--juicy tannins, with sharp edged red berry powder and awkward presentation.

I noted back in June that this wine was fading quickly and it that is what's going on with this bottle. This will be the last bottle of this I will get for that reason. I paid $7 for this wine which is silly for the kind of wine it is and the age etc. and it was well worth the chump change I laid out for it with no regrets. But it has run its coarse and we'll note the experience.
