This wine exemplifies what a little age (in this case 12 years) can do for an affordable bottle of Bordeaux.Deep red color. Nice aroma which is a mix of cedar and tabac, leather, and dark earthy fruit. Black currant becomes more evident on the taste. The tannins have softened with the bottle age (or I’m assuming they have as this is the first time I’ve having this vintage.) The soft texture leads to a nice long finish.
A solid B+ wine that I purchased for $25 from the online WineBid.com auction.
