This is a nice structured right-bank (merlot dominant) wine from Bordeaux. For the money, you get some nice things happening. Nice tannins, dark fruit, good body...I liked it! I drank this in my hotel room this past Saturday night while I was at the Electronic Music Festival in Detroit. It was a great companion while I was getting ready for a night out of dancing. I think with food, it would have even been better...but all I had were some cracker crumbs.
