La Fleur de Bouard 2004

My friend wanted to get my husband wine for his birthday and asked me what kind of wines he liked. I responded: Old World. Earthy. This wine was right on the money and he loved it. Thanks, Lisa!

It's a dry red wine - very spicy and earthy, but I liked my husband's description more: like chicken that's been char-grilled too much.

I'm not sure whether I'd like it alone or with food. It's pretty strong for food - except for a nice, big, fatty steak. But, it's too spicy to NOT eat anything... Definitely not good with soup and grilled cheese which is what I happen to have for dinner the night I drank it.
