Domaine Berthoumieu Madiran Rouge 2012

Received this as part of WA Exchange.
Opened December 2018 which was likely at least a year too soon, perhaps more. Alas, I did my reading about Madiran and its 80% Tannat requirement after the fact. The fact that Cab Sauv is used to _soften_ the wine tells you a lot. The wine is well made, beautiful nose and shows good fruit as other reviewers have noted but the tannins are still overwhelming. Give the wine at least a year or two more in the bottle.
