Catty aroma! Huge chalky start, sea minerals, ripe citrus... migrates towards snapped green bell pepper. Has a lush green and white finish: aloe, pomelo, white grapefruit, honeydew rind. Really compelling. — 7 years ago
White Bordoux. Nose and taste: citrus, lime, grapefruit, pineapple? Easier drinker for lunch went well with salad and sweets. Enjoyed in a fun and different spot in New York City.  — 2 months ago

3.0. Slightly flat nose, and even after breathing a slightly flat taste. Not much special about this 2016 Bordeaux. — 7 years ago
This is one I would never have tried, as it was next to the Beaujolais, and that's generally not a favorite of mine. But upon recommendation, I bought it and am pleasantly surprised! It's flavorful & smooth - delicious with chicken, too. — 7 years ago
Lovely deep Bordeaux. 2022 — 6 months ago

Super interesting. Big but complex. — 7 years ago
Bought 2016 per Pedro at Grand Cata $25 on 2/24/19. He said it would be heavier and exhibit more structure than some others in stock - and to let breathe for thirty minutes. Pretty bright red, no meniscus. Weak bouquet but surprisingly nice balance– good light acid, gentle tannins, red fruit, some flinty mineral. Juicy and full of bright red fruit, much like a southern Burgundy. Higher alchohol? — 7 years ago
