Garagiste selection -- part of a mystery case! 14.0% ABV
Color: dark red with slight brick edge Aroma: very complex; dark fresh and dried fruits and berries; a touch of tobacco Body/flavor: medium to full body; complex flavors of dark fruit; some warm spices, although distinctive types not apparent. Aftertaste: lingering finish
Served with braised short rids and polenta!

Quite nice. Pop and pour from cellar. Showing a little pink at the edges. A bit of mint and parsley on the nose. Cassis, pepper and lettuce greens on the palate. Chewy and long finish.

Very good straightforward CdP. Drinking nicely, for me thi s is early in the drinking window - still fairly fuity, but with some complexity coming on. No rush.

This wine was fun but uncomplex. I was hoping for more since I opened this bottle in lieu of another CdP. Light and young.paired with grilled steaks.

Pretty darn good...hanging in there nicely. Open for 30 min in the bottle before drinking with no dropoff over a 90 minute dinner.
