Base Bordeaux, the scoring maybe impacted by the fact that we drank it after Chateau Beychevelle 2003 and as such it was noticeably not reaching the level. I was not amazed by anything and considering the price there are far better Bordeaux, even from higher appelation of Cru Borgeois at the same price point.
