  March 27, 2015 - As with most Bordeaux's, age is a wonderful thing. We've had several bottles in the cellar for six years and the early experience was similar to the first reviews above. At present however this has matured into a very nice Bordeaux Supérieur. the nose exhibits rich tones of stone fruit with a medium body and a satisfying after with hints of cassis and chocolate. A very good buy.

  October 7, 2013 - Very tannic wine but with potential. Nice underlying fruit and long finish.

  July 31, 2013 - Tried to like it over the first two days, but it featured too much dank basement funk, on the nose and palate, and was way too tight for me to get into. The funk blew off and the wine opened up by the third day...and this became a nice, yet highly austere Bordeaux. No frills, acidic, but quite nice.

  March 14, 2013 - Better than it was at the start, probably not turning into any great, nonetheless it's a decent weeknight wine now.

  January 21, 2012 - Hard, tannic, and unyielding at this stage and not really the quality of fruit to believe that this will turn into something better than average.
