2012 vintage. Well balanced, light finish and would accommodate duck or desserts. Great value for your $.

Nov 11th, 2015Very smooth and drinkable. But is it better than Ménage a Trois for 2.5x the price? I am not sure, but I would buy it again as it is so hard to find.

So... Here I am in Boca at Richard G's event... After the day I had, I have the brilliant idea to eat at the place in his lobby.... Pravillon Grille... My god, the HORROR... Anyway, how bad can a bottle of wine be from the guy who brought us The Godfather and Godfather II? Dark, fruit, obviously Merlot... But, Francis Ford did bring is Godfather III... I've had better Merlots in the North Fork of LI... Like the old Don to Frankie in Casino.... this could have been, "a little better." No second chance Francis...
