Light purple. Light body. Powerful, intense flavor. Old World style, dry and spicy not sweet and fruity. This is a splendid wine, from Vieux Lazaret (the grounds of the "old hospital") bottled by the Quito family who have been vineyard owners for three centuries in this area. — 8 years ago

Excellent wine. Very drinkable. Succulent and savory. Mouth-puckering tannins on the finish. This is a great wine to smooth out a high fat dish like steak. Very nice. — 8 years ago

Run-of-the-mill merlot. Teeth-staining red, looks to be lightly filtered with lots of particulates. Bland and ordinary. — 8 years ago

Dark purple Nappa Valley merlot. Fragrant with sharp acidity. Lightly tannic. To me, not many flavors but when it opens up it is better. 14.5% alcohol. I'd invest elsewhere. — 8 years ago
