Popped & waited an hour before first sip. Tbh already the color was suspiciously thin. Next to no scent.
Taste: disappointing effort. This is a very basic, almost industrial kind of red wine without any depth, complexity, or anything to like about, other than a good balance of the very little it has in each dimension.
Paid EUR 16,50 for it at a wine merchant, drinks like a 7-8 EUR wine.
Most 10-EUR Riojas or 15-EUR Rosso di Montalcinos wipe the floor with this.
If this is what they could produce in a year like 2015, I dread to know what other vintages could be like.
One more weak experince with Bordeaux, which I used to like very much in earlier years.
Avoid.

Nice ruby color with pleasant fruits to the nose. Easy on the palate with smooth tannins.
