  Popped and poured, but I should have let it decant for an hour. Medium body, decent mouthfeel, and ready to drink. Good, basic Bordeaux for the money.

  this is much better than the average 5-6 € claret, purchased for 8,50 € and this gives a good P/Q ratio, 87-88 score

  (13%) 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot - Claret in style this one tight, firm and mineral laced on the palate. Soft, dark fruits emerge on a smooth, simple finish. K&L recommended a two hour decant which I didn't grant but nonetheless found it still pretty tightly wound on night two.
