Stratego's Review: Perfect wine for Californian style lover. Full bodied with a lot of ripe, oak style wine. The alcohol is very present as well. I'm not a big fan of those kind of wine but I know that a lot of wine drinkers adore this style. New world taste.

Stratego's Review: This wine was shared with my oncle Serge last week. 12 years and ready to drink this wine is complex wit a great finish. You could see the orange ring in the glass. Nose of leather and plum. Caramel and chocolate on the taste with a long finish. Medium bodied. Excellent wine for the price.

Stratego's Review: Great white wine at half the price of a chassagne-montrachet. Lime, Citrus and wood on the nose. Very refreshing mouth with notes of pears. Consistent with a soft touch of butter. Great wine for the price.
