  November 20, 2022 - Note: I use the recommended scale, so 85 represents a very good wine.
  
  Opened this bottle sort of for the heel of it around Thanksgiving.
  Seemed fine. No drama. Nice inexpensive entry level Bordeaux.
  As before in 2008. Time stood still.
  
  Put about a third of the bottle (maybe a quarter), corked on the counter.
  Left it.
  Opened it the other day (about six weeks later), and magically, it was even better.
  Go figure.

  January 21, 2015 - Received as a gift 5 years ago, finally opening. I know this is not a great French wine but it actually is holding up well and I had a decent experience with it. Moderate nose of nice floral rose bouquet. While light on texture and overall flavors were lacking there was a evenness to this wine. Deep red cherries, graphite. Light/mild finish.

  January 13, 2013 - Much better than I expected. Decanted for about 30 minutes. Nose was faint cranberries and cherries. On the palate this wine was smooth, not overly complex or really what I expect from a bordeaux, but pretty nice.

  January 14, 2012 - nose is light, Raspberries and a bit of earth. It reminds me of pinot or maybe a beaujolais(sp) instead of bordeaux. Not bad but not what I was expecting. Almost has a fakeness to it that bothers me a little bit.
