Disappointing. Short, a tad too acidic, muted nose. Not sure why it received some stellar reviews. Reasonable value though — 15 days ago

Disappointing in relation to the price. Much better choice at $60+ a bottle. Quite lacking depth and short on the palate. There’s a sweetness that makes think there is some sémillon in it? — 4 months ago

Big cab Syrah blend. Feels excessively alcoholic in spite of a 13.5% on label. It hits you like a punch in the face but it is a one shot effect without an evolving taste. Maybe will get better a few hours after opening. Follow up a few hours after opening and the day after: not getting any less brutish — a year ago

Meh. Disappointing for something made by Ch Lafleur! Easy to drink, little presence. Something you forget with the glass finished — 3 months ago

Some reviews describe it as elegant and delicate! I assume that is if a sledgehammer is elegant. This is a wine that will earn praise from R Parker : have on the palate, some lingering bitterness and presents as a high alcohol even though “only” a 14.2 % per the label. Had it with red meat. A true steakhouse bombastic wine lacking in my view finesse — 3 months ago

I found it to be a great value. Lots of citrus notes, mostly grapefruit. Controlled Acidity. For the price, you can’t be disappointed — 7 months ago

Impressive Rhône style Syrah for the price. Could pass for a good Cote Rôtie. Great nose of cigar , red fruit. — a year ago
