On the hunt for a table wine to serve to at a party of pretentious seniors with undiscriminating pallets. This bottle gets high marks for it's seemingly respectable label design. It's not thin either, but the green/stemmy taste never abates.

Cherry cobbler nose. Spice. Red raspberry, a little iron and cedar

Structurally, the wine has potential. Medium-bodied with good balance between tannic structure and acidity. Seemingly a perfect match with meaty dishes. But alas, the bottle is somewhat bereft of fruit; bits of cherry, currant, and dark berry, but dominated by sage and the bitter taste of stems (as indicated by another reviewer). Make sure that this one is served at room temperature, and it might be better with bread and creamier cheeses.

A little disappointing after reading the other reviews. Nose has a hint of the Bordeaux earth but little else. Body is medium with long tanninic finish. Fruit was indiscernible to me. Ok for the price but am still searching for the affordable Bordeaux.

Not for me. Too simple, maybe too fruity. Wine shop said it was from right bank (i may prefer wines from drier and higher elevations). Perhaps, I would prefer left bank

Smoky, citrus, rich. Lovely depth, pairs well with blueberries and chocolate.

Härlig, välbalanserad, rund, karraktärs fylld..om jag ska önska ngt så lite mer tanniner och mer längd i vinet, men skulle nog öppnat flaskan ngt år tidigare!
