Bordeaux blend met Malbec die doorhakt helaas. Lekkere wijn maar €200 is toch te veel.

Had the 2013 bottle. Really solid red. Better than many more expensive variants

Good but boring Bordeaux blend. Very subtle nose. Brooding plum flavor. Well-made but not worth the price.

Leather, charred meat, flower notes. Perfect balance on the palate. At this price ($32) better Bordeaux than Bordeaux.

Tobacco!, black cherry, good tannins. 2013 vintage. Could benefit from 3-5 years.
