Not complex, but ready to drink and quite satisfying. Plenty of acidity left, with cigar box, cedar, wrapper leaf and cassis aromas and flavors. Proper claret. #châteaumartinat #côtesdebourg — 6 years ago

Agreeable high QPR #bordeaux - Purple, black fruit nose, touch of warming spice. Robust acidity leading on palate, chocolate notes, drinks less fruity than the nose, some chewy tannins that build on the finish. The tannins and acidity suggest this $15 wine would be great after another 3 - 4 years. #côtesdebourg — 7 months ago
