Fr style but balanced by dried red and dark berry notes, spice and cedar and some dusty mineral.

Starting to drift after it’s peak. Opened up nicely at first but more oxygen did not do this wine any favors. Drink now if sitting on 2011 vintage

What a surprise! Cain concept a Bordeaux blend came to the rescue. Love this little Italian spot we found in Avon too!

Wonderful nose! Nice and pleasantly dry. The fruit really opens up with fatty beef.

Babs says it’s buttery. I can sort of see what she means. A pleasant rich oaky aroma.
