  This wine has a nose of blackberries, white pepper, and red earth. The color is bright and the tannins are solid. The finish is OK; yet, the wine would benefit from another year of aging or extended decanting as it relates to this bottle.

  Very dry and savory with a strong beef blood component. Not much fruit. Tannins and acid seemed crazy high on the first night and it paired badly with a cream soup. I don't think anyone goes to Costco looking for ageworthy $8 Bordeaux, but this beast can surely use some time. Settled a bit by night two but still quite austere. A no-frills Medoc but made well.

  What a tough crowd of reviewers for this very good wine! Wow! Drank this bottle over two days. It smelled and tasted as it should, with a good whack of oak that below off by the second day. Substantive mouthfeel and structure, quality finish. 87-88.

  Somewhat tannic. Paid $9. Went OK with stroganoff. Like the lower alcohol. Will try another bottle after some cellar time.

  Smoke in the nose, full dry body. Great low cost red. 12.5%
