Magnum 2010. Bought it quickly in a night shop - surprisingly good!

Kind of disappointed. Didn't care for the aftertaste. There are better. Merlots in this price range.

Dark cherry, blueberry and hints of vanilla. A nice moderate finish and body with a bite of acidity.

Aroma of cherries and a hint of vanilla. Taste is a tad lighter on the finish than you would expect. Full body though and nice overall.
