Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1996

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Beautiful color of ruby with a wide brick rim.

Great nose with over ripen red fruits, forest floor and earth notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with plums, currants, cooked cherries, dried fruits, light wood, prunes, cola, chocolates, spices, herbs and vegetables.

Medium finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.

This 30 year old Merlot is still drinking nicely. Not at its peak anymore, but very tasty nonetheless. Elegant with some fruits left. Complex and interesting.

I've had a recent vintage not too long ago that was drinking better, although I did love the complexity here, especially on the nose.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and will pair nicely with food too.

A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 12 months in (30% new) French oak barrels.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$65.

Côte de Nuits-Villages Chardonnay 2015

First bottle was little orange, and over the top. Bottle 2 was greenish yellow with exact the style we love. So thumbs up for the last bottle. — 2 months ago

Kinda fun but doesn’t commit either way to dry or sweet, which keeps you coming back. — 3 months ago

Réserve Moelleux Vouvray Chenin Blanc 1989

Complex mosaic of carrot cake and curry samosa. A light snowfall of mineralization at finish leaves you guessing. — 3 months ago

Mâcon Solutré-Pouilly Chardonnay

Ming L
8.9

Clean and refreshing nose of pear, green apple, lemon peel, and hint of fresh herbs. Supple and lively palate with subtle minerality towards the finish. It shows a level of structure that makes it more serious than generic regional Mâcon wines.

From a Pouilly-Fuissé based domaine that produces Chardonnay only. A pleasant quaff.
