This wine has a brillant medium golden yellow colour. It has plesant litchi and roses fragances. It seems to have a nice honney odour. This fruity wine has a crispy attack and it keeps fresh and very fruity finish. It seems to have muscat and violet spices taste.

| COMMENTS: |
This brilliant wine has a light straw yellow colour. It has a pleasant smells of green apple, citrus and grass. It is a full bodied white wine which is easy to drink. I find this wine very interesting because I feel firstly the roundness. Then, around this roundness comes freshness and liveliness.

2005 Chateau Fourcas-Dupre
-
60% Cabernet ; 40% Merlot
(France / Bordeaux / Medoc)
|
RATED: 03/30/2009 |
|
|
|
| COMMENTS: |
This blended Bordeaux wine seems to have a dark cherry red colour. It smells soft black fruit flavour, oaky flavour, with a slightly spicy tone. I detect a certain roundness and mellowness attack. Then it seems to have a harmonious astringency due to the presence of tannins in Cabernet Sauvignon. These characteristics give a wine long in the mouth and well balanced between suppleness and astringency. It is all what I expected of a very good French wine!

2007 Bourdier Sauvignon Domaine de Villemont
Sauvignon Blanc
- Domaine de Villemont
(France)

ALCOHOL: 12.5%
RATED: 03/30/2009 |

|
| COMMENTS: |
This brilliant wine has a light pale yellow colour. I smell typical fragrances of fruity white wines: pineapple, exotic fruits and peach. In mouth, I was surprised by a very acid attack. Then I feel a nice fruity evolution like passion fruit. After the acidity, the fruitiness comes in the mouth. In spite of the acid attack, it is an easy to drink wine.

I like Bogle. My wife and I had it for our wedding. Good price for a pretty good wine. I'm the sort of person who doesn't like to spend too much on a tasty bottle of wine. This isn't the best Bogle that I've had, but it gets the job done.

ALCOHOL: 12.0%

| COMMENTS: |
This wine has a pale yellow colour. It's a dry and not fruity wine. It hasn't a very expressive odour, but we can smell a blend of lemon, grapefruit and minerality aromas. This wine is smooth but we feel acidity in its attack. It isn't agressive and we feel dryness as we expect. It has a good length. It is very fresh and will be ideal with oysters.
