My last bottle. Wish I had more. Medium to full body, the nose is unsulas but pleasant, chocolate and black berries on the palate with a nice long finish. For less than 15 bucks this is and incredibleaged St. Emilion.

Very nice wine with an interesting nose. Some menthol notes and nail polish remover that doesn't seem typical of bordeaux. The tannin are pretty smooth and the wine is pretty well put together right now. At the right price, this is a fantastic QPR that's ready to go. Very nice example of a simple right bank bordeaux with some age that's ready to go.

easy drinking bordeaux; some funk on the nose that clears off to let leathery/tobacco aromas along with plum, blackberries and raspberries predominate; medium body with less complex flavors of red cherries with black pepper 15-20 sec finish. Not bad for less than 13 bucks. (84-85)

From double magnum. Black fruit nose. Blackcurrant and earthy. Dry rustic tannins. This wine is definetly on the downhill slide. Drink up.

Smooth, with rich fruit and slightly dusty tannins. Not exceptional, but good drinking, will be better in 2003.
