A good wine produced from old vines, very smoky rich, an oaky wine that either need to settle in the cellar for a few years or to enjoy right away with a bloody grilled rare Côte de Boeuf 😀

We bought this at Costco. The color was magnificent, the Bouquet even and full. The tannins are there but very smooth. The BlackBerries are there too as is a very mild liquorish taste on the finish. We loved it.

Equally great as the 2008. Younger but with a lot of potential to age.

Dense rich black fruit, anise, fennel and peaty notes. Rich body full of iron and herbs. Good match w/ BBQ.
