I really enjoyed this wine. The wine spent several months in French oak casks, and the result is a wine with a French flair. I noticed it as soon as I tasted it and before I even looked at the label: It was mature and mild in a way that I associate with the better class of French wine.
There's an aroma of vanilla, and cherry that reminds me of Pinot Noir. The tannins are muted, and the wine held up well to careful storage after the bottle opened. This wine has gone well with chicken, and no doubt would do nicely with meat as well.

A highly enjoyable wine at a moderate price.
