An inoffensive, middle of the road Bordeaux. Nose of dark cherry, kirsch and pepper. Light bodied, rather thin feeling on the palate with mainly cherry influences. Decent structure as you'd expect from this vintage.

Focused dark fruit in the way of plums and dark purple berries but not a whole lot else. Solid daily drinker but nothing remarkable and not showing a lot of secondary Bordeaux characters.

Another good bottle. This one showed quite a lot of structure, and tasters were blown away by the quality of this juice at this price point.
