A nose of some dark fruit and spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied red blend, with black cherry, plum. mocha and spice on finish. Drinking well for a 14 year old bottle. www.winelx.com

My last bottle, still drinking nicely, opened up after a few minutes, great balance, good fruit, aged gracefully, medium body, 13%abv, 80% merlot, 20% cab, complex flavors, drank with magret of NJ duck with blackberry gastronomic, a good match, excellent value, no more to drink, don't see this wine very often in other vintages.

This was awfully nice, especially considering the price. Well-balanced, well-integrated tannins, nice blend of fruit and earth, and certainly identifiable as Bordeaux. Great QPR.

Blackcurrant, black cherry, pencil lead, brown sugar. Medium bodied, savoury, high tannin, slightly coarse. Strong fruit presence in the mouth but elegant and fresh. Long cool finish. Very good basic Bordeaux.

Ein durchaus brauchbarer Bordeaux für die Rindsbratensauce und als Weinbegleitung dazu.
