Second vintage of this Umbria Merlot where Michel Rolland was involved. Still very tight with a serious tannic backbone. But… I think that this will become a beauty after some additional cellaring. If I would have tasted it blind I would have said Bordeaux. Very classic. You could ask yourself what the added value is when making an Umbria merlot which tastes as a Bordeaux one? But this is nothing more than a personal opinion — 3 months ago

Un vino de Umbría región al centro de Italia, por lo tanto no tiene influencia marina. Este vino lo abrimos la semana pasada lo degustamos con un guiso de carne, con arroz blanco, como no terminamos la botella lo guardamos en el refigerador y al día siguiente lo acompañamos con unos spaguethis con pomarola, quedo muy bien con nuestro menú, buen domingo! — 8 years ago

Peach, ripe red apple, whitnflowers, papaya, but also a hint of vanilla from the gentle oaking it has undergone. Luscious on the palate, butterly but not sickly. The oak has been well handled. Aromas of peach and, very distinctly, home made apricot jam. Good acidity. Very decent finish curling up towards a bit too much acidity at the very end. Great effort, very good wine for only £5 on offer at Waitrose. — 11 years ago

Nice compliment to a cool night and fine dinner. I’ve been saving this for a few years and it has aged beautifully. — 6 years ago

My initial rating (89 pts) of this Pinot from Romania may seem a little conservative but I’ll update accordingly when I taste it again after aeration over the next 24-48 hours. — 7 years ago
