Nice, ripe dark fruit, leather, tobacco, black pepper. Palate w smooth tannins, medium body, well balanced w an invigorating acidity and a fair degree of complexity. Well made wine, will most likely tolerate storage for ten years or so, although I find this very appealing as far as maturity goes.

Scrummy stuff. Trying to save these to see how they evolve but it's turning into my "go to" wine when I want something that I know will be good, Isn't too fancy and doesn;t cost the earth. tempted to buy some more...

Does not aspire too much, but delivers classic bordeaux feel (restrained fruit, iron and lead) for a very good price. Commendable!
