Still drinking really well!! I opened this to pair with a filet mignon the first night. It went really well as expected: very smooth, classic traits of a Rhone with some age on it. Four days later (yes, 4!), I finished it with baked penne, and it was still quite nice. Great wine.

Excellent wine! I enjoyed this with a filet with blue cheese sauce. Classic Cab-heavy Bordeaux. Drinking really well and as you'd expect of a Haut-Medoc with 10 years aging. Looking back, this was an excellent QPR purchase at $18.99 from WineAccess.

Consistent with others' reviews. This is a nice Rhone wine, with consistent Rhone aromas (barnyard funk, fruit, etc) and taste. I have one bottle left and look forward to it.
