Has a musty flavor that seems to overpower everything else. Not my favorite Bordeaux. May have had a cork issue with this bottle.

Loved the initial minerality of the red but as another review said the finish left a little something to be desired. Was a bit better with some air

Second bottle. Stored at 62 degrees and aerated. So very drinkable. All I can write is I'm happy with it and would recommend without hesitation.

2011 vintage. Light in color, slightly bland with dry finish. Earthy/leathery nose. Paired with pasta. Decent bottle.

Since I'm not an expert at describing wine all I can do is try my best to describe this wine. I opened it and used arm aerator to pull some air thru it as I poured it into a glass. Some thing about French soil... Rocky and gravelly where these grapes must have been grown.It's a good wine which lacks complexity at first taste.. With a dry finish. Color is similar to a Pinot. Not much leg. Smells lovely... Cassis spice. Highly drinkable paired with nothing..
