I liked this wine better than my spouse did. Initial nose of red fruits & prune. Taste of red fruit, eycalyptus (more as the night wore on) and currant. Ok with our roast rack of Australian lamb. Best with the baked potato with sour cream with bacon & horseradish, which really made the wine sing. Very modern in style. My sense was I would have liked it better 1-2 years ago. But still a great QPR for $10+ fees ($13.50 all-in). DRINK NOW.

- Garnet color with medium forming legs and aromas of bell pepper, blackberry and eucalyptus. It's balanced and has flavours of black currant and oak with a light/medium body. Round texture with a medium finish - A great "sleeper" St-Emilion. Drinks great now, but could sit for a while as well.

Great nose! Great color! Finish was very short. Very similar to other notes.
