Brain farted, ordered this instead of old standby Rollan de By. Oh well, this wasn’t terrible, not great either. Soft and plump, quite earthy, ripe, almost stewed. Turned band-aid by the end of the night.

Blackberries, mint, mid weight. Can't go wrong with a nice, everyday Bordeaux.

Dish water, underbrush, red fruits, red berries. Medium-bodied, dry albeit elegant tannins. Balanced, structured, good work.

Quite a disappointing, thin wine for $27.

I quite like it! Starts a bit sweet but it's dry none the less.

Thin, no fruit, little tannin. Only a bit of acid saves it from total anonymity.
