Very enjoyable. Red fruit, pepper, and oak with medium long finish. The thing I like about the Cuvee Le Bec is how good it is young. This is a great weekday wine that won't break the bank.

A decent red but nothing really appealing. Not a buyer for us.

Hard not to like this. It is a very fine blend that incorporates all our lovely desire for blackberry and dark fruity with a slight tannic punch.
Excellent with a steak.

It starts with a blackberry and currant. Then you get punched with waves of licorice, nutmeg, turpentine, and pepper. An impressive domestic GSM+.

Bright red, mineral, salt, almost volcanic nose. Strong finish, somewhat ashy.
