Initially quite closed, but opened up considerably the second day. Biodynamic Bordeaux for <$20? Yes please.

Strong contender for my humble "house claret" (sorry, reading too much Harry Waugh). Organic/biodynamic too.

Must be paired with food, however it is very bland after having done so while before pairing it tastes too acidic to drink.

Fun with a nice NY Strip. A bit closed down, but still enjoyable.

Delicious. A classic Bordeaux for a great price. Just the right heaviness, slightly dry. Needs a little cheese as lube.
