Idiom - Bordeaux Blend 2005 75cl Bottle
Red Wine A full bodied blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (66%), Merlot (22%) and Cabernet Franc (12%). It is very expressive on the nose with sour blueberry and cherry aromas competing well with blackcurrant leaf and soft smoke. On the palate there are good firm tannins with lots of restrained red and black fruit with hints of vanilla, spice and dark roasted coffee. A succulent wine with a long finish. Aged in 70% new French barriques for 18 months; this wine is worthy of gracing any cellar and table. The Bordeaux has some succulent dark berry flavours as well as hint of spiciness and smokiness and as such goes well with different cuts of barbecued or chargrilled beef - rump, sirloin, fillet, best prepared medium rare. The Idiom Bordeaux and a good steak are a fantastic match. The dark chocolate notes allows this wine to be paired with a bitter or very dark chocolate based dessert (not sweet).
