84 Points

Friday, July 1, 2016 - Okay for the price (Le Select Bistro, Toronto at $70 CAD) so likely ~$30 retail, which is pretty low for the Bordeaux region (even Côtes de Bourg), but nothing to knock your socks off. Nose presents very well some of the classic notes for graphite, black berries, freshly turned earth, fruit do not have huge depth and followed expectedly slightly dilute on the palate. Medium acidity and tannins, just not quite enough to make it to medium plus - finish it medium.

Gets the extra star just for low retail price
