June 4, 2022 - Surprisingly more lively that expected. It was dark and robust. Nothing spectacular but drinkable.

March 20, 2022 - Note: I use the recommended s ale, so 85 represents a very good wine.
For whatever reasons, I though this wine would age a bit better than it seems to have aged. After decanting, the wine opened up a bit, but it was still a bit dry and dusty for my taste. Not much fruit was present.
Interestingly, on Day 3 (a half bottle sat corked on the counter) the wine seemed to have picked up some nuance. Often, this suggests that more aging is need, but for whatever reasons, I do not think this was the case here. Rather, it seems that a long decant may be in order. I have some others, so I will try it out. -

May 4, 2021 - Nose: dried apricot, spiced rum and vanilla
Palate: predominantly earthy flavors - pecan shell balanced with pleasant acidity
Tasted with: beef Shoulder roast
Overall: very pleasant low tier Bordeaux. This didn't seem "old" and didn't have any bricking. Enjoyable and glad to have kept this. Consensus at my house: 91 points -

July 24, 2019 - with lamb chops- perfect. Excellent fruit, grip, and finish. Some cigar box on opening, but not after decanting for a few hours. Mostly merlot, so I would suggest drinking soon.
