Didn’t care for this much 4 years ago, and at that time thought maybe it could use a few more years of aging. Boy howdy! This was delicious last night with roast chicken dinner and afterwards. It has softened considerably and lost the alcohol heat that I noticed last time. Luscious plum and dark fruit flavors, with some leather, tobacco, and well integrated oak. Glad I waited.

Such a very good Bordeaux for under $30.00. Perfect time to open. Legs long...high 14.5% alcohol. Aroma...floral and everything beautiful in this world of floral wine notes. JS93 and WS92. Get it while you still can with this 10 year old Bordeaux.

Solid wine, delicious fruit and good acid and tanning balance. Not very complex but holding its own.
