6/19/2018 - Earl T Likes this wine: 92 pointsI am in shock. This wine has not only held up way longer than I expected, it has improved tremendously. I would have believed this an older Bourdoux. Amazing. Thank God I have 6 more! 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

8/3/2015 - Earl T Likes this wine: 86 pointsSurprised that this wine has held up so well. Drinking nicely. Not much on the nose but still nice cherry flavors with a little pepper finish. Expected dead juice. For price very nice after 10 years. |

9/7/2013 - Earl T Does not like this wine: 80 pointsdont know if only past its prime or started this way but it has lost its color and fruit already, if it ever had it, even though been in my climate controlled cellar the whole way. color looks like a 15 year old wine. Too much green bell pepper for me. pass. |

9/7/2013 - Earl T Likes this wine: NRthis is still in good shape, as I was a little worried it might be past its time. Still lots of fruit, not what you would call refined, slightly "dirty" on the palate, but the red and black fruit favors with a little spice was worth it. most will find this a good fruit forward drink. |

12/22/2012 - Earl T wrote: 87 pointsCan't believe this bottle is still alive. Would have bet the house it would be dead. Nothing special, but still a little fruit, cherry mainly with white pepper at end. Muted but what do u expect for something this cheap and this old. |

9/30/2012 - Earl T wrote: NRAmazingly this wine is still drinking well. Lots of fruit still in there. Typical of this wine palate is full and loaded with fruity goodness. Not for Pinot lovers. But I like it. Damn good with braised beef though! A little heat still at the end, but not overpowering. |
