Slight brick colouration. Full saturation, bright. On the nose, ripe raspberry, black cherry, cassis fruits with spice and notes of french oak, well integrated. On the palate, pleasant tannin, full body, some heat, good acid, low RS. Dark red and black fruits with slight note of green pepper. Moderate to long finish. I would leave this bottle to age for a while longer.

Easy drinking, but uninteresting. Tastes like Bordeaux made by committee. A little bit of everything (blue fruit, red fruit, black fruit, oak, acidity, drying tannins to give it some faux sophistication), and nothing stands out.
