July 14, 2023 - Over the years, this wine has consistently been performing outside its expected bracket. I simply love this as a go to red Bordeaux that continues to charm. Worth every single cent.

April 21, 2022 - Big juicy fruit with nice structure and mouthfeel. Was perhaps expecting more given the pedigree but still a good QPR. Reminds me of the Cap de Faugeres which is also cote de castillon and can sometimes be found for well under $20.
