Solid plush St Emilon. A bit ripe but high quality oak and that distinctive Bordeaux nose. Great value!

Drinking well for 2012. Not too tannic. Nice complexity.

Rich and lush. 9 months in new French Oak. Blackberry and cherry flavours. Stunning.

Very nice wine. I cannot remember what I paid or where I bought it. I would not pay more than $15 again, though.
