Bordeaux, France
Big and brawny. Black fruit, dusty soil, earthy pepper, and all of it going full throttle. Would love to try it again in several years.

Light tannins with some acidity. Reasonably full bodied for a merlot. Love the aroma. $20

2014v. Deep purple. Dark fruits of black cherry and plum. Dirt/earth. Very dry. Young tannins to give the wine a little character but they are round and integrated. A crowd pleasing Bordeaux for those who love big red wines from the old world. One of the better supérieurs that I've had. At $10, great QPR too. Needs about 45min-1hr to fully open. 13% ABV.

Pretty smooth merlot. It gets better if you let it breathe a bit. Some cherry and light tannins with a little spice.

Nose is much stronger than taste. Nose is very strong, vinegar, hits you in the face. And taste is very smooth, subtle, almost chocolate finish.
