Have a look at the cork-and that’s the top, not the bottom. Corked or super dry, not my cup of wine. Cork smells like balsamic vinegar

Kaitlyn had this 8 years ago

Wasn't crazy about this. Young and acidic. Probably would buy again.

Nice raspberry nose. Still has some tannins, with licorice and more raspberries on the palate. Still tastes young, so we'll keep the other bottle in the cellar for a while. It's an ok wine.

Light cherry, peppery, high tannins

Ok as a budget buy

Very pleasant Bordeaux blend - served with a roast and roasted vegetables on a chilly night

Pretty bland

Very complex wine, delicious, ripe flavors
