Tasting Notes: 
This is my first Bordeaux. I am definitely enjoying it. The nose of this was very inviting, throughout the glass. It held my interest until it hit my palate with its strong aromas of dark fruit and mild spice. This is a deep red wine. It tastes of dark red fruits, subtle flowers, and undefined spices. The tannins are extremely mild, coming from this blend. The cost of this bottle seemed well worth the time looking for the first experience, at $11, plus shipping fee. It uncorked with natural wood and was decanted; I happen to notice some sediment. I give this wine 85.
I would serve this wine for: 
socializing with friends.
I shared this wine with: 
my husband.
The nose on this wine reminds me of: 
sitting on a forrest floor, in the summer time, after a rainfall.

pasta with red sauce; steak.
I think this wine is priced: 
well.
