Untypically lucious & hedonistic for a st.estephe. Good balance & great length.

Very natural and convincing. Classic Bdx, sufficient acidity.

Bangin' Cru Bourgeois value with classic flavors of blackberries, cedar box, tobacco leaf & no obvious new oak. Fantastic balance btw the lilting acidity and moderately soft tannins. Only issue is that the bottle finishes too fast!

Lots of fun metaphors being thrown out. This was definitely the leather-clad dude on the motorcycle that your parents don't want you going out with (though he's really nice once you get to know him).

In a perfect spot. Dirt and clay and classy black fruit and coffee. And so on. Darn tasty.
