    May 30, 2022 - Quite good. A lot of blackberry, black current, and dark plum fruit along with tobacco, iron, and earthy flavors. Tannin was prominent upon opening, but smoothed out with about an hour of air.

    Certainly in the prime drinking window, it should hold for at least another five years or longer as it did not seem too faded at all. Great QPR at around $25 US dollars

    April 29, 2019 - The wine looks purple colored. The legs are slow. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, blueberry and stoniness. It tastes like blackberry, black currant (cassis), oak and stoniness. The body is full. The wine has round texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

    July 18, 2018 - Env 30$
    Éclusé et dégusté sans note au chalet.
    De mémoire, un Pauillac qui est, au nez, surtout sur les violettes et le graphite.
    En bouche, on est sur le cassis avec une acidité marquée.
    Rien de renversant.

    January 19, 2013 - Huge nose of ripe berries. Bold attack on front of palate, lots of berries, with wet stone, a little funk, moderate tannins, a little oak. Nice structure overall. Finishes fairly long with cherries.
