This wine was a random selection for me. French wine in PA is a tricky purchase and it is typically overpriced in my opinion. I much rather buy it at my hometown store Village Corner in Ann Arbor.
Medoc has a predictable airiness and sourness to it but its tone and flavor can vary a bit. By tone I mean dry vs. moist and rich vs. thin. By flavor I mean how sweet or non-sweet it can be. This Medoc definitely has a sweetness to it I have not come across in Medoc, but it certainly has the dry sourness you find in a Medoc. Priced at about $16 a bottle, I don’t think this is worth it, but it certainly reveals its French character and is a dependable wine. If you find it for under $15 then go for it.
Locating this wine online was not a successful conquest. The best I cando is direct you to the vinter’s website where this particular wine was not accessible.
