very impressive especially considering the price: inky, dark garnet hued, immediate Left Bank notes & aromas of dark fruit, cassis, cocoa, graphite, leafy herbaceous element, varietally correct & accessible. Firm tannins, plush mouthfeel, not the biggest boldest CA CS but solid. — 5 days ago

It’s possibly because the local wine distributor is so strict but this is so much better than anything I’ve had in years at this price point. — 8 months ago
