Bought this at the same time as the Neyers Byrd Cooper Zin - 2007... preferred the Zin. This Cahor was OK and quite drinkable, but didn't leave any lasting impressions.

If you like a grassy burgundy, you'll enjoy this wine. It's a nose full and a mouthful. Crisp and refreshing.
This one works for RH, not for EH.

Starts sweet and fruity, yet finishes crisply and long in the mouth... with a hint of fizz. Very nice wine!
This one we both really liked.

Rich bouquet, but a bit thin in the mouth. Perhaps I was hoping to discover a $40 bottle @ $16.50. Very drinkable. Didn't rock my world. Had with EH's chili... so LOTS of flavor... perhaps should give it one more try.
