February 23, 2015 - Dark berry fruit forward balanced well with hints of vanilla. Soft mouth feel, subdued tannins and a nice balanced finish. Excellent Bordeaux for the price.

February 21, 2015 - 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark ruby color. Pleasant blackberry, raspberry and spice aromas with flavor of blackberry. Some dryness on the finish. Medium bodied with ripe tannins and low acidity. Proportionaly balanced.

January 7, 2015 - Dark ruby. Nose is dark fruit, but a bit musty and forest floor, with some oak overtones. Flavor is pretty staightforward, red fruit, sweet on the tongue, light tannins, and hints of cola, oak, and vodka. Finish is medium, focused on oak, and tiny bit bitter. A really nice wine value for the price, easy to drink and enjoy, with just a hint more character than some wines in this range.
