shared with pat at selkirk manor to celebrate the end of the work week. selected this bottle because drink latest date had expired. seems that i don't like this wine as much as others do. i have to work hard to find its charms. this was a 375. rather flat overall. not off but also nothing memorable. just a hint of fruit after a few minutes of air. i have also had other disappointing wines from this producer. drink up.

Robe grenat au disque orangé, le in est d'une belle limpidité. Son nez explose de nuances, allant d'épices, aux baies, aux fruits séchés, au café, au chocolat. Grande complexité qui nous donne beaucoup de plaisir. En bouche l'acidité rend le vin coulant, les tanins sont soyeux, une légère touche d'amertume structure le tout. Le vin pourrait encore se conserver, mais sur 2 bouteilles bues, il est maintenant à son meilleur.

maybe my expectations were low, but this wine is still holding up really well. dark in the glass; pleasant red fruit with really nice earthy undertones on the nose and the flavors were consistent with that. but even with the strong earthy flavors the wine was still vibrant on the palate and the mouthfeel was great. medium bodied, fruit forward, well balanced.

Well over the hill and likely only 87 points in its prime... Would've been a good picnic bottle!
