From a magnum with whole filet mignon at Christmas dinner. Classic Bordeaux drinking well with dark cherry, blueberry & cassias, medium body with just enough tannins to elongate the finish. While not the most memorable wine it just worked well and became part of the overall dinner. Wish I had more.

30 minute decant had with pot roast. Well balanced with black fruit with fine tannins, last bottle but wish I had more.

Light easy wine, hints of strawberry without the tartness. Much more approachable than expected. Great summer wine and price point.
