Community Tasting Note

  May 18, 2012 - I'm in close agreement with previous notes on this one (a Bordeaux I picked up at Trader Joes). Winedominus put it well: "Simple, enjoyable but not memorable. Initially, it was light, mild-fruit with a slightly bitter, earthy finish." I also let the second half sit corked overnight to see how it changed with time. It aged fine and was a bit more fruity the second day, with the bitter finish perhaps slightly more balanced. I might buy again, but at $8 I'd probably sample other Trader Joe's French offerings first.
