Lovely, lean and elegant style. Decidedly old school Bordeaux on a budget.

2015 vintage. All show and no tell. Very little nose, mid-palate or finish. Framework and structure of the house are readily evident but that’s about it. Big mouthfeel without any semi-nuanced backup. $20 retail.

Restrained and tight fisted. Very old school Bordeaux. Recommended as a good example of the style and vintage thought not a super star.
