Last bottle. The '08 is singing right now. Wish I had more.

Super solid with dry-aged ribeyes. Pyrazines present and keeping things all together. This wine showed blue fruit some cassis touch of iron with solid acid and great freshness. Loved it.

Bright red cherry, bold, and balanced. Big, smooth body. This is an absolute treat for the price. Pleasantly surprised and would buy again.

Nice structure makes for a clean wine. Good body with good Bordeaux characteristics. Great with black truffle oil!
