4th Saturday Brown Bagger (EBCC): Double blind. Bouillon and soy notes with plum and dark fruit underneath. Medium-bodied. Hints of raisin on the palate; slightly ripe/plummy/raisiny. (J&S)

Bettter than I remember. Deep dark purple color, showing no signs of aging. Rich and tart cherry, dark fruits and tight tannins. I think this will get better over the years. Again, great price point / value.

Only had one of these and I’ve been drinking some 2014 lately and they are great. This one is quite good, certainly less fruit forward and less opulent than the 2015 which I’ve tasted several times. Balanced, ready but may still improved. A very good st emilion for the price point. 90+ for now. Coravin of half the bottle with limited decant plan more detailed notes on 2nd half with 1-2 hour decant day 2 or 3.

Great right bank wine with emphasis of Merlot. Wonderful flavors combining a sophisticated blend of fruits and tannins. Appears to be slowly gracefully aging. Delish!

Very good, from a lesser vintage. Can’t wait to try the 2015/2016.
