A Costco home run, I think this was like 10 bucks. What a great value, this drinks like something much more than that. I'm drinking the 11 and based on the reviews there is clearly some variation between vintages. Mine drinks like a dry old world cab and merlot blend. Nice structure and finish will some oak and not much fruit. Very good. Decanted for 6 hours and it really sings. Will buy more, a lot more. — 10 years ago
Great fruit and earth on nose, medium bodied Merlot with balance. Awesome value — 11 years ago
#bordeauxont even play with me right now....tasted with Jeromé at the Chateau as part of a 15 year vertical. Who knew Castillon could age?!?!?!? — 11 years ago
Great wine! Medium body. Not too acidic. Some fruit in the beginning but quickly dissipates. Somewhat earthy aftertaste. Would recommend. — 11 years ago

Drank 12/5/18. Paired with lamb burgers.
This was a great value, originally priced around $17, currently on special for December with an additional 20% off at total wine for around 11$.
Nose of plumbs, cherries, leather, and black pepper.
Flavors of red and black cherry, soil, and tar backed by medium tannins. Dry, medium to long finish. An impressive wine for a lesser chateau in a mediocre year.

Juicy, a bit chilled and opened marvelously with a few hours. Paired with Sondheim's "Company." Awesome night with my brother. — 14 years ago
Well still alive and kicking with secondary forest and leaves coming into what is left of black fruit notes. It was under ten bucks back then. Value! — 7 years ago
Very good! It’s what a good Bordeaux should be. — 7 years ago
Drank 2/19/18. Paired with roasted chicken.
The nose of sweet stewed plums and red berries is quite expressive. Still present, but mild, well integrated tannins lend structure to cassis and earth flavors. Medium finish. This could go a few more years, but is in a sweet spot now. I dont think it will improve further, so drink now. Fully mature.

Eucalyptus and black plum on the nose with cherry, raspberry, and grape stem on the palate. Tannins that need time to open. — 9 years ago
