Top Notes For
Loved this wine. Highly recommend. It’s dry but flavorful. Lightish but with lots of flavor. Would absolutely bring to a dinner party.

1 person found it helpfulMar 21st, 2023So-so for a Bordeaux under $20. Good dark fruit, toasty cedar notes with a black tea finish.
Decanter gave this 97 points- I think their rating system is broken.

Had this one with steak off the grill and some garlic, Parmesan and cream potatoes. Dark reddish purple hue. Bigger body. Light tannins. Hint of pepper and spice. Some super light vanilla and black cherry. Enjoyed this one and would have again.

Jul 5th, 2025We don't enjoy this wine. You'd get this for 5 Euros in a French supermarket and may still be disappointed.

Feb 10th, 2025Just very mediocre. Nice astringency but seemed very bland and almost watered down. Not impressed.

Dec 29th, 2023Slow starter with an aftertaste; after it opened up, I liked it a lot more.
