I was initially scared that I was opening this too soon but it is really in a great spot. Blue fruits and flowers, a bit of graphite, and layered tannins make for an excellent texture. Elegant wine with a luxurious mouthfeel. 73% Cabernet Sauvignon 27% Merlot.

Leather and spice. Black currant. Worth it. Thanks Trader Joe's!

Well-balanced, but acidic Margaux, enjoyed with bolognese meatballs, Drakes Island, ME (Provisions)

Got one at TJ for $53. Medium body, dry, nice tannin and vibrant fruits.

Open this bottle too early. After letting it in the glass for more than a good hour it opened a whole bouquet of flavours. Absolutely gorgeous: red fruits, felt some mild roasted cocoa during drink, which turned after having it with a meal into a vanilla scent.

Really interesting wine. Truffle comes through on the palate and cocoa both on the palate and nose. A good reminder for me to drink an old world wine once in a while.
