I think this could be an impressive wine in a few years. Well worth the $15-$20 it retails for. Nice tart red fruit and a hint of sage on the finish.

Easy drinking and fruit forward, with just enough balance. Just wanted some more acid.

Ripe, but subtle. I assume this is a Merlot / Cab Franc blend. One can certainly pick up on the chalky minerality of the latter. Finishes clean.

This is the black t shirt of wines. Goes with most things, inoffensive yet far from striking and stylish enough to be acceptable. I hear this would be good in a few years though I lack the patience for any of that

Solid. Graphite dominates. Some nice dry, sweet dark fruit. Black currant and iron. Will likely get better still with more time.
