Thursday, February 22, 2018 - A classic Bordeaux with a nose of dark fruits, rich forest floor, and a bit of cedar and leather. A lush palate, good structure and a long lingering finish make this a wine that begs you to come back for more. Well balanced, with just enough acidity to perfectly complement the fruit. I had this with a grilled Filet Mignon first, and it was an excellent companion, adding dramatically to the enjoyment of the meat. But sipping it afterwards let the wine's subtleties come out, and it's definitely worth drinking on its own. I'll be going back for more of this gem.
