Not the moat concentrated style, but i imagime this shows more of a truly 'classic' claret style; elegant, clean, sapid, moreish. Supremely drinkable, for the shorter term.

Cherry, green bell pepper, black pepper, and earth on the nose.
High toned and lean on the palate: sour red fruit, sour plum, spice, black tea. Really nice acidity and somewhat soft tannins with a touch of astringency.
Great little Bdx especially for the price. Would be outmatched with steak, but was perfect with roasted chicken thighs.

Fresh hay and cherry fruit on the nose. Lot of cherry, medium-light body. Nice finish but the steak is over powering this one.

Color of ruby mixed with burgundy, quite clear. Nose is nice, with sweet cherry, strawberry, almond, cured meat, tobacco, and a bit spice. Taste is wrapped at first. After stirring, flavors show up, with nice spice, black pepper, polished tannins, tobacco leaves, grassy, a bit zest, nice round acidity, fruits notes like juicy grapes are melted and mixed into subtle sweetness. At her peak with quality. Aftertaste is clean with lingering flavors. Enjoy her now.

Gary Vee club selection! Amazing!
Red fruit, leather, bell pepper, mint. Lucious mouth feel with some spice at the end. It’s Medoc but 54% Merlot which is unusual. But it is delish.

Garagiste selection. $15.71. Chocolate, charcoal, too muddy.
