For Bordeaux blend that can age effortlessly for 10-15 years but won’t break the bank, the Mariner and the BV Tapestry are my top choices.

The nose shows blackberry, black currant, baking spices, autumn leafs, iron, and hint of cocoa. Medium to full body. Excellent balance. Supple fine tannins. More Bordeaux like than the Tapestry IMO.

One of finest vintage yrs for this estate, as evidenced by the OPULENTLY RICH PV component. Jeffersons terroir and taste of place are evident in this bottle… Think somewhere in between Paso Robles Cab and Rhône GSM. - very unique finish. Delish and a real value! $28 at Wegs — 4 years ago

This was the last of the ten wineries we visited. We were “done”. We bought a few bottles and opened the first a while later and it was SO GOOD! Better than we remembered. This BC Bordeaux (Meritage) blend of Merlot, Cab Sauv, Malbec & Cab Franc. BC was impressive. — 7 years ago

v12. Don’t know why I still had this, but I lucked out. Delicious! Sharp, fragrant “barrel sample” nose. Fresh, rich, deep black currant, blackberry, cassis and plum fruit. Structured, yet velvety smooth whipped chocolate finish. At peak, very well balanced. — 2 months ago

The nose on this was incredible from the start - cassis, baking spices, and chocolate- exactly what I was craving tonight. But the wine really needed a lot of time to open up. Luckily, it's a Friday night and I've got nowhere to be! An hour and a half after decanting, the Cab Franc that had been very pronounced upon opening the bottle had mellowed and integrated nicely with the rest of the blend. — 5 years ago

Bold and spicy with a fresh herbaceous nose, I get hints of celery, tomato leaves and anise. Very dry and tannic with a strong cherry cola palate. Paired wonderfully with a wood fire grilled striploin. — 8 years ago
