Farge / lukt: Dyp rød./ plomme og solbærfrukt. Smak: frukt, lett sødme, litt jordlig/(sopp) men også fruktig, med litt syre. Helt ok. Men ikke noe som frister til gjenkjøp

Not exactly delicious, but enjoyable, the age is apparent on the nose with some mushroom notes and then fading fruit and wood in the mouth. Still, the mouthfeel is good and there are some substantial tannins left on the finish. Interesting balance of bitterness and sweetness (sweet is subtle).

Notes brèves. Joli Bordeaux, nez très classique. Notes d'évolutions sur le tabac, cuir et le cèdre. Les fruits sont encore bien et les tannins adoucient. Bémol sur la finale astringente qui le rend un brin austère. A 20$, RQP intéressant

Classic Bordeaux nose of earthy, woody notes centered around core of black and red fruit, strawberry came out strongly in later sniffs as well as becoming a bit jammy later. Palate was quickly evolving over course of evening but averaged to be complex and refined fruitiness on front washing out a bit on the mid palate and finishing very pleasant and returning to prior fruit forwardness, black pepper and great tannin structure. Great finish. Unbeatable QPR, sleeper Bordeaux, right on the edge of Margaux appellation and it shows. Highly recommend, although I think this is on the tail end of its drinkable life.

Super dry, spicy like pepper. Steel, iron and earthy note. Great with pork and sweet yam. Sleeper for $30cdn. Wish I got couple more.

Nez agréable sur le fruits, le cuir et le tabac. Bouche austère et amertume bien présente.

Nose of strawberry. On the palette more leathery spice and a hint of cranberry. A bit bitter and chewy. Not much fruit left.

Une bouchonnée, et l'autre parfaitement agréable sur un début de tertiaire. Quand même un peu austère et appelle la bouffe.

Smoky, red berry, earth, rubbed herb and withered wood nose. Medium bodied palate with OK fruit and gripping tannins; dry finish.
3/5

great bordeaux, little gem, great dark fruits, hint of vanilla, slight tannine with sour cream. 2006 is just right
