  Slight nose (head cold). Soft, fruity with dark cherries and plums. Fairly nice inexpensive Bordeaux, that hasn't shut down yet.

  Easy drinking mid week wine. The funk on the pnp blew off in about 10-15 mins. Red fruit, red cherry and spice on the nose and palate. Soft mouth feel. Decent acidity. Minimal tannins. An extra point because of the QPR.

  Nicely drinkable merlot; nothing complicated, but decent QPR.

  Very approachable, if simple. Merlot dominates with more upfront fruit than many other reasonably priced 2010 Bordeaux. Improves with air. Like virtually all 2010s at this point, needs several years more in the bottle to smooth out. Good value!

  Lighter style bordeaux, drinkable... Good value at $10.
