Opens with red licorice whip, palate... this could of been aged on cedar planks... very disappointing, so much promise. Finish at least has a bit of star anise

One of the most beautiful reds I've had. Full of flavour and a lovely taste of the oak this is aged in. Perfect to sip or have with a meal. Will drink again and again.

Absolutely outstanding Bordeaux. Shows what the wine from the region can be and what it truly can express! Very old, yet very alive!

Good Bordeaux for the price. Not very complex but smooth, balanced, and drinkable. I enjoyed this at home with a steak!

This Bordeaux Blend is very traditional. Dark red, slight hint of tannins, blackberries and dark plum, bold and a hint of smoke. Excellent value and a good wine for cold rainy days.

A tasty Merlot based Bordeaux, retails for under $16 most places.
