Had with a steak dinner. I'm not sure if I feel swindled, confused, upset, or optimistic. Very disappointed for the price point. I've been cellaring this bottle in my Eurocave for a few years and it wasn't anything to write home about. We allowed to decant for 30 minutes. We had 2015 Larkmead Cabernet Sauvignon the next day that tasted better than this.

2015 was an amazing year! This tastes like a $80-$100 bottle. Now I know what people mean about French wine when they say it ages better than most American wine. Absolutely fantastic. The nose was seductive, on the pallette was absolutely amazing. I need to find more to buy asap.

Best Italian QPR you can find now a days. $27.99. This went very well with some pizza. Nothing powerful just most complimentary.
