Neutral and quaffable Bordeaux, not a standout, but a good representation of the appellation

Surprisingly good value for the appellation. Just the right amount of fruit, tannins, vegetal notes and spice

Excellent QPR! Good purity of fruit, nice acidity. Really was showing nicely after a 2 hour decant.

Perfect truffle and leather on the nose, with just enough green grass. Rich berry and mineral, with a faint vanilla finish. 90+ points.

Watery, green tannin on the palate. Doesn't last long.

First of all, I don’t have the best palette in the world, but I must say that after 14 years it was quite drinkable. No award winner for sure, but what do you expect for the price point.
