Eclectic Wines 2008 Chambourcin


Variety: Chambourcin
Region/G.I.: Hunter Valley
Vintage: 2008
Closure: Cork
Alcohol: 14.0%
Colour: Deep purple with brownish hues
Bouquet: Earthy aromas with hints of red currant conserve
Flavour: Rather plummy flavoured with some cedary notes in the mix. A touch of alcohol burn lingers. Some integrated tannins as well. Good finish for this medium bodied wine
Points: 82 (3+6+10+7+6+50)
Notes: Quite ok but I can't image ever having the desire for a Chambourcin. Nothing that stands out as a reason to come back. $15.80~300Kc. Adding Chambourcins into mixed cases of wine was the reason I abandoned wine club monthly plans
