Yes. Very good Bordeaux, especially for the price. Excellent drinkabilty and smoothness. Slightly peppery. D really likes.

Had 2019 vintage in Feb 21 and we both got headaches.

For the price point it isn’t bad. But there isn’t much flavor, it’s very light with a stronger than expected alcohol taste for only being 13%. Fruity nuttiness note. V2018

At less than 1yrOld it is still juicy. Medium body, fruit, not earthy, medium or minus tannin. More new world, to Wifey and my liking. maybe the hype of a warm 2018 in BDX means great values at all price points? Nice table/cooking wine. $6 from TJoes SD
