The rewards and frustrations of home winemaking

Bourg Rouge Tasting

The burgundy is now about a year and a half old.ย  Nose of cherry with traces of herbs. No fizz in this bottle, did not decant or vacuum pump, just splash poured. Flavors of caramel, plums, and light cherry. Getting more of the “bacony” and “smoky” flavors just now. Taste definitely integrated better, quite drinkable now, probably at its peak. A nice light everyday red, nothing big or bold for sure.
