Dark rubi robe, nose of blackcurrant, cedar and flowers. Very dense and elegant in the mouth, its balanced with very fine tannins, good length and complexity. This is top notch and good value at this high quality level.

Earth and spice on the nose. Medium acidity, medium tannins, nice finish. Good value for a 4th growth Bordeaux.

Alcohol, licorice, and cough medicine on the nose. Very little that resembles France. Mild fruit and spice on the palate, with what tastes like heavy OH, but bottle says only 13%. Finish is very sharp and short. Nothing about this about this wine makes any sense.
