title: Boëté 2009 Cheval Rouge Red (Carmel Valley)
description: You'll find savory blackberry, cherry, currant and cola flavors in this dry blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, as well as smoky, oaky notes. The problem is excessive softness. There's no proper structure, so it all collapses in mid-palate.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Cheval Rouge
