Smoke taint, would love to try a different vintage; you can tell this would have been really good

Good and accessible bottle to bring to dinner when you don’t know what to bring. Totally drinkable without aeration.

very impressive especially considering the price: inky, dark garnet hued, immediate Left Bank notes & aromas of dark fruit, cassis, cocoa, graphite, leafy herbaceous element, varietally correct & accessible. Firm tannins, plush mouthfeel, not the biggest boldest CA CS but solid.

Let it breathe, for awhile. After that, nice aroma, smooth, good with dark chocolate. Cherry and chocolate notes.
