Hitting way above it’s sub $20 price point. Find me a wine anywhere other than Bordeaux that can do THIS. Wow

2.8. This Medoc was highly rated but we didn’t much like the flavor. On sale for $21.59, regularly $26.99.

Ripe cherries and berries on the nose, underripe black plum, leather, toasty oak and some hints of graphite and tobacco. Med + acidity and sleek tannins. Nicely structured right out the gate, er, bottle!

GL tasting Pape Clement 10/18/17. Means tall oak tree. 60 Merlot 40 cab. Three vintages. '15 Nose of black berries and palette that's straightforward with some earthiness and medium finish. 8.8. 2010 nose that's black fruit and body with hints of wood and good structure. 8.9. 2005 nose that's complex with that autumnal secondary notes of age and good structure on palate and long finish. Rewards of aging. 9.0. Roland consulting previously but more moving away from me oak.
