  Delicious. Held up remarkably well for 14 years. Emily wasn’t quite ready but the rest of us enjoyed!

  Surprisingly good and I hear RP liked it too!! A predominance of merlot makes it soft and forward with a silky finish. a little smokiness in there and two or three hours later the last glass was still all there. I like 2008 as a vintage and if it had not been for the exceptional 09/10 turnout would be more talked about.

  15 months since I've last tasted this little Bordeaux, and time has served it well. Similar tasting notes as before with a bit more cinnamon and white pepper spice, however, its starting to show the ability to age, which is fantastic given the price point.

  Nice bouquet and flavor but it is a bit rough. What do you expect for a $13 Bordeaux. But not bad for the price.
