Pretty darn good wine! For a straight-forward Bordeaux from Médoc, this wine is a great value. It took a little shaking and decanting to open up, but it is classic Bordeaux. Tobacco, cedar, dried herbs, slight cassis, wet rocks. The fruit is surprisingly hidden for this riper vintage. Killer for the price!
