Beautiful color of dark ruby with a wide reddish rim.
Elegant nose of blueberries, plums, cooked cherries, light cedar, earth, herbs, chocolates, black pepper, eucalyptus, licorice, herbs and Mediterranean spices.
Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cherries, light oak, spices, dark chocolates, light mint, coffee, peppercorn, licorice, herbs, light earth and black tea.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a delicious Merlot from the great 2016 vintage in Pomerol. Nicely balanced and fruit forward.
Still young and restrained, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but drinking so well already. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Has good potential to become a 94+ point wine.
Rich and chewy. Complex, entertaining and good by itself as a sipping wine.
A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 16 months in (70% new) French Oak barrels.
14% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$150.
