Wine Enthusiast93 pts

One sip is all it takes to fall in love with this wine. It's soft, gentle and enormously rich, with a velvety mouthfeel. Blended from all five classic Bordeaux varieties, it shows luxurious blackberry jam, cherry pie, red licorice, cocoa, cinnamon spice and sweet-smoky sandalwood flavors. Drink now–2015, before it loses its fresh primary fruit.
