Out of 3 bottles tasted in the past year, this was the only one with out significant hydrogen sulfide smells. Tannins have mellowed and the red fruit has balanced well with leather and wood tones. Very pleasant bottle of wine that went well with a paella.

a blend of syrah, cabernet and cabernet franc. dark ruby with dark berries and prunes on the nose. soft tannins with leather, smoke and dark berries. a bit simple, but this wine went great with the lebaneese food we had. good qpr, but not exceptional.

Dark ruby wine, from Cabernet-Sauvignon, Syrah and Carignan blend. A lot of fruit, simple but still a good wine. Drunk it too soon, could wait for another 4 or 5 years. Now it lacks some personality.

Purchased off a wine list in a Lebanese restaurant in Knightsbridge for GBP 20. Ruby red color. Very ripe, almost to the point of prunish. Some spicy notes. Odd finish that reminded me of new carpeting. Drinkable but not recommended.
