Note di degustazione
The 2010 Boyd-Cantenac feels a little muddle on the nose compared to its peers, although it improves with aeration to reveal lovely raspberry, cedar and tea leaf aromas. The more you nose this wine, the more you like it. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a rather incongruous minty note on the entry. It feels like it wants to impress and it does to a certain extent, though I would like more terroir expression and tension on the finish. That might come with time. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 10-Year On Bordeaux horizontal.

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Boyd-Cantenac features pronounced notions of black cherries, stewed plums and crème de cassis with hints of sautéed herbs and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is just a little lean in the middle with a chewy texture and stewed tea finish.
Tasted blind. Deep garnet and surprisingly still has some cassis notes, cedary too. Juicy, some might say green, but I find it lively and refreshing. A real grip to the tannins yet it’s all in balance and has a long way to go but maybe the tannins are too much? (JH)
Rich with toasty, warm spice – cardamom, clove – and rich, succulent red fruit. Very smooth tannins – 100% approachable now. Modern, sleek, perfumed and utterly delicious. (RH)
