Oh it’s ripe it’s yummy it could use more quirk n character but all over the balance is...just okay though the fruits are a wee syrupy. The length goes on if not interestingly. It’s all fine. Better than some worse than others I like the fruit earth balance tho

Full bodied, extremely dry. Dry all the way through, almost coarse. Strong woodsy flavor. Dryness overwhelms fruity taste and other spices. Least favorite Bordeaux and least favorite wine to date. Decent price but other bordeauxs offer more for the same price.

On the red fruit side of classic. Easy value drinking.

Had the 2019 in October of 2024. Super dry. Lots of leather and some smooth, dry tannins. Hints of fruit and cedar. Enjoyed this one. A woody richness on the nose that I loved. Would drink again.

2018 vintage. Solid value play. Some smoke and velvet and cocoa powder amongst the plum influence. Medium-bodied and medium dry. A little, pleasant floral component I can’t quite place on the finish. I’d hit this again for the $.
