Magnum bottle. A wine that continues to develop on the palate. Smoky, red fruits, dry tannin, big persistant finish. Very good. — a month ago

Medium deep ruby , pink rim , quite intense , with coloured tears noticeable . Quite closed but deep dark fruited , serious but compact nose , with touch of dark chocolate , grafite , blackberry , dark plum, cherry . On the palate more dark fruits , blackberry , dark plum , cherry , quite rich with dark chocolate, grafite nuances . Balanced acidity with quite gritty tannins . Slightly mineral and saline tinged on the medium length finish , with just a slight warmth from the alcohol noticeable . Certainly ambitious for a Castillion Cotes de Bordeaux , though unsurprisingly makes no mention of this on the front label ! This shows quite young , will improve over another 5 - 7 years and last a further 5-10. — 5 months ago

One of my all time favourite wines...flavour, balance and acidity, all for a very reasonable price. Paired with a tomahawk 😋 — 6 months ago

Vintage 2015 | I forgot that I drank this wine 4 years ago, but 🫶 to delectable. Same velvety taste. Joyful fruit expressions. 60 Merlot 30 Cabernet Franc 10 Cabernet Sauvignon 12 m in barrels. A wine that clearly punches above its classification. Wonderful. Paired with salad and American pizza. — 4 months ago

2016 vintage. Missing the overt frontal palate richness evident in the 2017 and 2018 efforts but substitutes in the bretty leaness sweepstakes. Light-medium body. Great value but currently not an easy sell or for everyone. 7.10.24. — 5 months ago

Light gold in color with a green hue.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate and nicely balanced.

Showing yellow and red apples, ripe pears, lemons, spices, oak, almonds, sea salt and black pepper.

Long finish with almonds and limes.

This 4 year old Russian River Valley Chardonnay, is drinking beautifully now. Buttery and rich. Fruit forward with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Peaking now and will continue to drink nicely in the next 3 to 5 years.

Easy drinking right out of the bottle, and better after 20 minutes of airtime. I had the 2018 not too long ago and loved it as well.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and better when not too cold.

14% alcohol by volume.
