Cru Burgeois Bordeaux (Ripple - Washington, DC): Similar in style to the Rollan de By (same ownership and winemaking team), but with a bit more pepper and soil aromas. Plush, rich, lots of dark cherries and plums, and a good dose of peppery smoke and dark soil. Very attractive and accessible but good tension to unravel in the cellar.

Here we have more freshness and focus than the Greysac (under same ownership, by Jean Guyon). Savory flavor, and I could easily enjoy this with a barbecue. Not the longest finish, but not the highest price, either ;-)
