Really liked this Bordeaux. It’s 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon with well balanced acid and tannins that make it very drinkable despite its young age. Subtle black currant on the pallet.

80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet franc. Medium bodied bargain, easy to drink

Basic (boring) Bordeaux. More fruit forward than most and missing that "French funk."

I was hugely impressed by this wine. Lots of great things going on in such a young vintage. Likely to age supremely well. Lots of body, great overall balance, really good.

Still young but enough acid for a lamb stew and a couple years of cellaring.
