For $12.99, this is a lot of wine. I picked this up with KC back at the offline and this is my last bottle.
Solid solid wine. While not as lush as the Joel Gott 815 at a similar price(and definitley not as nice a bottle [img]http://wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] ) This is an elegantly put together wine, not unlike a cru bourgeious level of bordeaux. Nicely controled tannins, good soft red fruit, nice balance, a reasonable amount of interest in the wine. Smooth with a med+ finish. Had it for lunch with a re-invigorated wife interested in learning about wine.
