Bordeaux collection - (France)
Fruitig Kwestie van Smaak
The "demoiselle" is a sort of dragonfly found in the Médoc. Like the dragonfly, this wine of the same name is light and elegant.
Tight and linear with berry and citrus character. Black fruits are joined by a cooling freshness, a medium body and a clean finish. Pretty second wine from Sociando.
Good value with some lovely crunchy fruit.

2019 Bordeaux collection Frank Phélan Saint-Estèphe
0.75 l Rouge
Médoc France
Brilliant ruby red color with violet hues. The wine has almost all the characteristics of the first wine but to a slightly more modest degree. Faster to drink, smoother style, slightly less impressive in complexity and final, but what a wonderfully tasty wine that offers the opportunity to get to know a top appellation such as Saint-Estèphe at an affordable price.
Fruitig Kwestie van Smaak
The deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by an open-knit, exotic bouquet of spice, incense, flowers, and sweet black cherries and blackberries. Rich and opulent, with ripe tannin, a savory, voluminous mouthfeel, and wonderful finition.

Intense fruity, black berries. A fine combination of balance, density and elegance, creamy tannins revealing with an extremely harmonious aging potential.

Dark ruby red color. A nose with aromas of ripe black fruit, plum, nuances of licorice, mint and with a balsamic touch. A mouth with a nice balance, round, with well-structured tannins and with a very nice length.

0.75 l Rouge
Fruitig Kwestie van Smaak
Shiny, deep, ruby red color with violet hues. Pure and intense nose of ripe red and dark fruit. In the mouth it immediately unfolds into an impressive and harmonious whole. More complex flavors are already starting to develop. Cocoa, tobacco, leather and a fine smoked wood touch. The rich and powerful character of this vintage is perfectly contained by an impressive structure and flows into a long and perfectly balanced finale. 2016 and 2018 are widely regarded as the best PS vintages ever.

Fruitig Kwestie van Smaak
Brilliant red colour, combining the generosity of Saint Emilion and the richness of Pomerol – an appellation that borders on the estate. The bouquet is redolent of ripe fruit along with subtle notes of spice, truffle, liquorice, pepper, and forest floor. The wine starts out very straightforward, going on to show roundness, body, silky tannin, and great precision. It features a long, full final showing very pleasant sensation of plenitude.
