Chateau Beauregard 02

Coteaux du Languedoc

Carignan, Cinsault, Grenache, Syrah.

Very nice bouquet of black pepper, sausage, and a day-old cigar. Color was dark with a brown tint - Almost like a ruby port. Body was surprisingly lacking though. Initial reaction was of greatness, but upon the mouthful, it fell apart and disintegrated into nothing. Left a very weak and confused flavor in my mouth. If this had a bit more syrah maybe it would have been nicer.

UPDATE: I left this bottle open for a few days. On the third, it seemed to round out better and was more appealing (although I was in a happier mood - so this could be the cause too)
