Chateau Boutillot 2006 Bordeaux

This Bordeaux wine from Chateau Boutillot in Saint-Michel de Lapujade, Gironde is a bit on the young side for my taste. It is on the tart side, with bitter tannins in the after taste, with not much of a nose on it.

A Bordeaux wine for around 3.50€, means it is no great surprise that it is not very drinkable. The rest of the bottle will not go to waste. I will cook with it tomorrow.

It won a silver medal in the Concours des Vins D'Aquitaine 2007. Makes we wonder how they won it. Maybe I got a bad bottle!
