Chateau Bagatelle 2009

Chateau Bagatelle 2009, 12.5% vol.

Was actually paying more attention to French red after savoring a nice bottle recently. Today was a bottle ripped from a gift hamper - grapes from Bergerac, South West France, fresh and juicy of semi-dry mouth feel that's tasty to drink.

Bottled by the Grands vins de Gironde group in their 34,000 m² cellars in Saint-Loubès where bulk wine collected from their partner châteaux was blended from the different grapes to add complexity to the flavor and texture of a wine.

I couldn't tell if this bottle is a blend wine but it most probably is.
