A bistro wine in the best sense of the term. Fruit centric but not flabby, pairs well with pork short ribs, porcini pasta and a duck confit. We often take home a couple glasses when dining out but this was done before the main course. Drink up and enjoy for what it is.

Dark ruby. Quite big; not overly sweet, but verging on it. We would have preferred this with more savory and mineral characteristics. Into a sauce it will go.

Consistently good offering from Thackrey; always a very drinkable wine, alone or with food; big fruit on the nose and palate; medium color and body but full flavor; the finish mellows with time in the glass.

Very pretty med violet color. Nose with lots of coconut creme. A little clay and strawberry too. Yum. Very much better than a year back.

I am always a fan of NV Sean Thackrey Pleiades. Mineral, good acidity, raspberry, cherry. Nice nose. Awesome QPR
