Dark purple color with a perfumed nose of dark berries, vanilla, smoked earth. The palate is full-bodied with a silky texture in a core of black currant, dark cherry, vanilla, smoke, graphite, toasted oak. It has a medium-length finish with silky tannin. Honestly, I find the taste as very generic Bordeaux, although it comes out very balanced and complete. I'd have to say that it's quite delicious, and great value for an everyday wine!

Tasted over 2 days - consistent throughout. Fairly light-bodied (especially for this vintage), but loaded with classic old world flavor and acidity without heavy oak influence. Just a simple and pure old-fashioned Bordeaux table red and a decent price.

Nice deep red color. A bit watery with too many legs. NIce berry aroma. A bit bitter and acidic taste, perhaps it is still young wine.

Very light bodied. Light berry nose and palate. Not getting much oak. A very mild wine.
