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

So-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.

Hints of cherry and tobacco. Smooth and full flavored. Won 2022 Decanter world wine awards, scored a 95.

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

Starts out earthy, pencil and dark berries. More fruit as it opens up. Medium body and well balanced.
