November 27, 2022 - Decent right bank for the price- $58 at a restaurant. Seemed to have a hole in mid palate at first but blended in; overall nice wine

November 11, 2022 - I have to agree with many of the other reviewers about this wine. I'll just say medium, medium, medium, medium.
Designed not to offend not please, really.
It's fine, QPR is not good, would be happy if $11.
Shouldn't have St. Émilion on the label. -

January 7, 2021 - Appearance - clear, medium plus ruby.
Nose - clean, youthful, medium plus intensity, though, air is not its friend. Getting kuc mire alcohol burn as it remains open. Red and black very fruit. Feels very primary. Wine seemed better with less air.
Palate - better on palate but not sure at this price point. I paid the NYC premium. Feels integretated but predictable. Medium everything. Commercially produced wine. Had Saint Emillon not been on the label I would have picked something else and paid less. I paid $25 and too much.
Highly doubt this wine gets better with age. Thing the drinking window is now. -
