Very nice, tobacco, earth, leather, bitter cherry. If I tasted this blind I would have definitely guessed right bank. This is a great wine, went perfect with our grilled rack of lamb tonight!

Mar 24th, 2014Plummy and curranty fruit with a little spice, its modest weight and ripeness make it friendly and approachable but with subtle depth reminiscent of 1989 La Dominique. Very well done.

Nov 24th, 2016Based on color and clarity I may have guessed Pinot, but nose screams Cab Franc. Body and texture lean back toward Pinot as well., but flavor profile is Bdx all the way. Guess I'd call this a Pinot lovers Right Bank blend.

Nov 21st, 2015Beautiful. Paired with my flank steak and short rib, but also went well with Paul's crispy skin duck. Must have this again. Perfect way to celebrate a milestone.
