Ripe dark berries, smoke, tobacco. Full-bodied, amazingly rich and warm.

Wow. Powerful but light. Dark fruit + bell pepper + fine tannins. Drink now!

Super smooth, velvety. Very savory, a touch of fruit, and a tad hot.

Lovely wine that still has a bold tannic structure after a two hour decant. I suspect this wine will have have even better presentation in several years, even though it was fully enjoyable tonight.

Not cheap but a masterful Bordeaux blend we enjoyed in Monaco. Had this at a heat restaurant with lots of beef. Perfect match. Tannins didn't dominate too much and fruit was all dark cherry and the natural chocolate.

What a wine! Perfect balance, velvety, sexy. Multi-Layered. Very long aftertaste. 97+/100. Drinking like a young hillside select....
