Dry+, medium-full body with medium acid, medium-full tannins, flavors of blackberry, stone fruit, white pepper, and a hint of clove and bramble.
A very enjoyable young Lussac. Dry fruit attack with a soft, almost lush middle and a quick brambly peppery finish. No one will confuse this with a peak St. Emilion but it does the job well for the price. For a basic Bordeaux-merlot, you can buy with confidence and drink now.

Dry, medium body, medium acid, medium tannins. Well balanced.
Love this. Really took off after about an hour. Graceful slice of blackberry-cherry pie with a dry finish and a bit of clovy spice.

Very dry, full bodied (for an Oregon pinot noir), medium-full acid, medium tannins.
Enjoyable dense black fruit with brambly notes. Was not drinking very alive or complex but the dry fruit was hard to resist.
