What’s not to like about this BDX blend from WA! Not overdone or overextracted (oak definitely there but integrated) but very generous aromatics & flavors on palate. Red & black fruit, warm spice, distinct cassis, minerality & earthiness like loam & soil goodness. Sturdy tannins, bit hi ABV - sometimes lumbering, but a really impressive & persistent finish.

Insane QPR. Comparable with a lot of $75 WA reds for 1/3 price. Well done, and aging well. — 4 months ago

So smooth & unique at $75.00

elgian Michel Couvreur was an independent bottler of single-malt Scotch (and this apprentice Jean-Arnaud has carried on after studying under Michel for more than a decade). The cellars are located in Bouze-lès-Beaune in the heart of Burgundy, where Michel aged his single malts for years in sherry butts and then in demijohns or giant bottles kept in total darkness in the exceptionally well-protected underground galleries of Bouze-lès-Beaune. Vatted from 54 whiskies aged 12 to 27 years in oak casks, this malt has a rich amber color, a nose full of dried flowers, tobacco leaf, Jerez wine, and fat almond, plus a powerful, fruity, long finish. What a fantastic accompaniment to smoked salmon when served over ice. It is also perfect as a dinner digestive served at room temperature. — 3 years ago

Shades of brick on the veneer; low variation across. Earthy, peppery, funky, fungus, tobacco leaf, dried cherry, overripe plum, violets, roses, dried bay and grill buildup. Silky palate explodes with rich red cherry and ripe plum. Prunes and fresh, ground black pepper follow while dark tobaccos and myrrh culminate. Rich, powerful, perfumed and incensed. This dungeon shadow hound from the underground begs for chunks of grilled meats!
