375ml. Multiple parcels located adjacent to, and/or near, Mouton, Latour, Lynch Bages, etc. One of the least expensive prices of admission to Pauillac.

Violet, earthly, roses on the nose. Bright black cherry, chocolate, and crushed berries. A bit harsh upon opening and needs time to open and settle, about 1-2 hrs in decanter. Nice lingering finish with mild tannins. Great with hard cheeses and grilled red meats.

Nicely done. Be sure to decant. Good color. Blackberry. Concentrated in a long finish. Solid Paulliac. style.

Big wine with huge berry flavors, but some nice tannin on the finish. Feels like a napa or paso cab mixed with a little French wine. Not my favorite but could see this being very pleasing to most people.

I would definitely buy this again. At $29.95 a bottle it is definitely a bargain!

Dried red pepper, red fruits, and some earthiness. On the lighter side of full bodied Bordeaux. Still quite youthful in 2017. Great value for the price.
