Dark red, dark fruit on the nose, with medium acidity and some grippy tannins. Taste of dark fruit, baking spices, chocolate. Better with air on it. — a month ago
Yummy and chewy. This wine is very bright and approachable. Cherry, blueberry, cranberry, violets, and vanilla lead to a soft, Jolly Rancher finish with shy tannins. This is a real treat today, especially after drinking my sister's Tableau.

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!
Pretty color of dark ruby with a reddish rim.
Fruity nose of cherries, plums, black currants, spices, light oak, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, earth, dark chocolates and black pepper.
Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with plums, currants, cooked cherries, oak, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, spices, earth, light vegetables, pencil lead and peppercorn.
This 5 year old Merlot from Saint Emilion is drinking beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
Nicely balanced with nice complexity. Rich and fruit forward. Elegant and soft. Spicy and entertaining.
Good by itself or with food. A great sipping wine.
A blend of 77% Merlot and 23% Cabernet Franc. Aged in (50% new) French oak barrels for 16 months.
14% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
