Deep Ruby, mostly Merlot blend, with simple aromas of red berry fruits and pepper spice. On the palate black fruits spicy notes. Lively acidity, firm tight tannins, short finish. Just ok! Drink now!!

We’ve had the 2016 vintage and liked it, so we tried the 2018. Probably liked it even more. Fresh finish, deep purple color, soft fruits. Paired well with both chicken and dark chocolate

Light ruby hue with medium-high saturation. Aromas and flavors of blackberry, earthy, leather, plum, raspberry, and vanilla. I also got a subtle hint of Brettanomyces yeast. Medium body; firm, full, yet rounded tannins; and medium-plus acidity. Fresh nose; smooth mouthfeel; easy finish. Blend of 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Cabernet Franc. Approachable, everyday red.

Ok- would drink again but would buy something else first. Kind of plain, still not bad though

Great value Bordeaux! Easy drinker, but stands up to a good steak.

Awesome daily drinker, classic Bordeaux. Balanced with moderate acidity. Could use a bit of aging or heavy decanting, will buy again.
