April 11, 2015 - Cellar clean-up. Delicious raspberry and dark berries, leather, herbs. We bought over a case of these for $10 / bottle at Trader Joe's, on close-out, and they were terrific. Sadly, they are all gone now.

January 6, 2015 - Very tasty wine. Great with the rabbit, pork and ginger sausage and delicious with the duck pate with foie gras and the chicken pate with pistachios. And excellent with the grilled mushrooms.
