Opens up very slowly, keeping a very youthful appearance. Shy black currant leaf, fresh black currants, a bit tobacco leaf, a smoky, earthy note, a faint whiff of orange peel. All interwoven, subtle, and yet, a bit underwhelming.
The wow happens on the palate - smooth and so polished… more silk than velvet.
Cool black currant, a touch of 100% cocoa chocolate, a bit of espresso savouriness
Not really rich nor broad… but the precision & depth are amazing. Harmonious, self assured, elegant. A finish that goes on forever
If only the nose would be as magical as the palate - what a grand wine this would be — 2 months ago

Inky red orange with currants on the nose and palate. Opened up a couple of hours after uncorking with some sweet coconut shavings on top of the red fruits. Will continue to develop. — 6 months ago

Solid low-price Bordeaux that delivers correct Bordeaux flavors under $30. Nothing special but it’s an enjoyable casual Bordeaux. Light enough to enjoy alone or with casual food like tacos. — 4 months ago

Pop and pour. A beautiful dark ruby red color. On the nose: very aeromatic with dark fruit, herbaceous, some funky earth, leather and touch of mint. Taste: dark cherry, chocolate espresso, spice, tar, little bit of green veggie, and a medium dry finish with a slight still there tannic kick. — 4 months ago

Oh what a winner!
Fine & elegant and with such enticing aromatics. The nose just pulls you in with ripe damson plums, some dark cherry, dark dry earth, just a hint of cedar wood but there’s also a ripe, juicy exotic note of ripe mango. Fresh, vibrant and rich at the same time. Seductive!
Very polished on the palate. Smooth, velvety juicy tannins, so finely grained, beautifully balanced and with nice depth & length. Juicy, fresh, very elegant a yet so drinkable!
Nothing profound and yet - a textbook Bordeaux Merlot that you always hope for.
Delish! — 3 months ago
