Lack of tasting notes, but beautiful and well structured blend. All elements were so well integrated. Very restrained and refined for domestic Bordeaux. This is the style of this winery and in my opinion, they are doing it so right at a price point hard to find in the US.

Good wine. Very Bordeaux like in its austerity and structure. Not flamboyant and fruit forward, but rather cool, dusty, and herbal. Lots to like and probably more potential in the bottle.

Give some time to open. Berries and smoke on the nose. Medium weight. Good balance with fruit and some mouth watering acidity on the back end. One dimensional but quite nice for the price.

We tasted this at the 12/8/18 release party. It had a rich, ripe, fragrant nose of black currant, black cherry, mocha, cocoa, herb, spice and mineral aromas. The palate was plush, rich and dry with flavors that followed the nose.

Dark fruits, berries. Soft tannins, a hint of sweetness in the palate. Very enjoyable w hard cheeses and fruit platter.

Lovely wine, but took a couple of hours to open But then it was beautiful, rich and deep. Well worth acquiring.

It’s a nice wine. Nothing memorable stood out to me but it was a quality drink.

Much better after a 1-2 hr decant. Tobacco, herbs, dark berries, and the hint of wildflowers. Firm tannins. Probably best in a few years.
