Drank 11/26/18. Nice pairing with grilled lamb chops.
Nose of red cherry, cassis, some earth and graphite. Flavors of red and black fruits with leather, earth, and a touch of black pepper , backed by medium, dusty tannins. Always a nice value cru bourgeois, but the '12 comes across as a bit thin, lacking some of the concentration and depth of the '10. A nice wine nonetheless.

Oaky smell, smooth start, peppery throughout, not terribly heavy on tannins

Total wine purchase. Tried December 2022. Smells bad, like toe jam. Un drinkable. I typically love a left bank Bordeaux but this is bad

2016. Blackberry, oak, cedar, allspice, floral. Balance a bit skewed towards acidic but it works.
