Friday, March 15, 2013 - A Very Casual BYOB Evening: Decanted for barely an hour before we gave in and started nursing this, the wine immediately evoked St. Estephe in appearance, aroma and taste. This is an elegant Bordeaux that seems very much ready to be enjoyed. The merlot component was very evident from the get-go. Cedar dominated on the nose. The texture on the palate was memorably rich and structured, with sweet tannins and spice. I did not note much evolution through the evening, though that may be best explained by the amount of other wines we sampled...
