These were a bit of a hot mess when I first tried them. Later they were decent but essentially used for cooking. Made a great coq au vin so can’t complain too much but definitey not a qpr bottle; could see these priced around $20 maybe

Still too tannic for my preference but not unexpected. Decanted for 1h30 and drank with a ribeye. Will hold the rest for 3 years minimum before trying again.

Oak bomb. Definitely doesn’t drink like a $100 bottle of wine, maybe $35-40. Disappointing for the price
