I had a fruity to oak/earthy experience. Fruit up front Oak to Earth on the finish.

Went well with my steak-filled salad...as well as with my chocolate-covered walnuts afterwards. β 5 years ago
This is nicely done. A bit on the βin your faceβ side, itβs got loads of rich, plummy Merlot fruit, a fair whack of French oak, and loamy earth notes. Rich, darkly fruity, a bit chocolatey in the mouth. Still a fair amount of soft, side-of-the-mouth-clingy tannin left. More youthful than its 12-year age. 15% alcohol. I prefer a slightly more reserved style, but this is impressive in its own way. β 4 months ago
