A special wine. Allowed to open for only 1 hour and paired with a charcuterie board and great friends. The initial nose was floral and bold. Silky smooth with balance and a hint of pepper spice with great berry fruit. This is the type of wine to impress your friends and serves as a reminder why life is not all Cabernet.

One of the joys of buying wine is to have time to age it to see what the result is. What a joy to find this bottle! Round and soft, big nose. Paired with roasted endive, pancetta, walnut, gruyer cheese, and fresh tomato pasta. A special night with a surprise mature wine. Girard wines age wonderfully.

Absolutely wonderful with nose, round mouth, boysenberries and tobacco. Just perfect with steak. Balanced, jammy and solid structure.
