Right where it needs to be. A mature Medoc with tons of focused red fruit. Truly a pleasure.

2 people found it helpfulJul 4th, 2015Excellent example of an old and nicely aged wine, what can you ask more from this price?
Primary, secondary and tertiary aromas are still there, slightly fading but fairly clearly perceptible.
On the palate still refreshing with some acidity and mature tannins Wine is mature+ drink now

Mar 5th, 2013Not enough complexity to handle a Wagyu Rib Cap, nice starter wine IMO for the price

Not very complex, yet still very much alive.
