MagVino Likes this wine:
June 16, 2017 - I've not had a whole lot of Loire reds and was afraid this would be over the hill but no worries there. In a cool cellar, this goes another 5 years easy. It has that slightly astringent, Bell pepper characteristic; pleasant mid-palate fruit; finishes a bit short and very dry; moderate to light intensity, appealing transparent magenta color. A fit and trim wine, this would go with all sorts of food. Would definitely buy again, and will, if I ever run across it.
