Great purple color, lush blackfruits, solid balance, just seems to lack a bit of depth, very good, but not outstanding (and I adore right bank wines, was hoping for a little more.

Earthy, smooth, and easy to drink, light aroma with medium acidity and a lingering light chocolate aftertaste. Paired beautifully with local elk dish.

Earthy AF St Emilion. Drinking quite well right now. Especially after swirling it at the speed of the Game of Thrones plot this season...

Leathery smoke, charred date, currant. Smooth and deep. Lots of tannins because it was the bottom of the barrel and seemingly unfiltered. Quite lovely alone or with anything really.
