Real solid offering in a lousy vintage. Great price, and surprisingly not thin, or over manipulated. Red currant, black plum and even a sugary cran note.

Apr 8th, 2017Interesting, strong tannins even though it's from the right bank, fairly dry. Plum, strawberry, and cherry on the nose. Fruity and full body, I like this. Well balanced.
