2005 LA TINA Champ d Soeurs FITOU

Cracked my 2nd bottle over the weekend and enjoyed it over 3 days. For $18.79, this was an incredible bargain and no oak-slathered fruit bomb. Both red (grenache) and black (carignan) fruits in the mouth, serious extracted fruit yet still weightless in the mouth. Good acidity as it paired well with steak. A hint of drying tannin on the back-end so I may hold onto my last bottle for a couple more deals. A great find at a great price by Jon!
