Review by Mr. PIERRE K. Published on July 16, 2018
On the nose, Merlot dominates, with hints of vanilla, prunes, and even toasted notes. The oak, ever-present, complements the wine beautifully. The attack is supple, with elegant, well-integrated tannins. The palate is relatively complex, with a lovely, lingering finish. Overall, it’s very elegant and expressive! Excellent value for the price. Best decanted or opened the day before.

Honestly, I'm very disappointed... undrinkable... it was definitely stored improperly.

Review by Ms. NINA B. Published on October 15, 2017
Perfect for pairing with meals. Excellent value for the price. The flavor is mild and not overpowering, with a very simple, warm bouquet. It lacks a bit of length on the palate.
