Bordeaux, France
$29.95

Nice Bordeaux but certainly not worth $30 ($20 would be the maximum I would pay for this wine). I have to agree with the reviews hinting at very little oak and tannin, which made this wine really easy to drink. Tasted April 2015.

Enjoyed it but needed a good hour of decanting to really deliver a nice tasting experience. Good choice wine when you want to play it safe at a party, but don't expect too much complexity. Tasted August 2012.
