If any of you are still traumatized by the ass beating that merlot took in "sideways", this is a wine that will make you change your mind. This is a Super right bank Bordeaux. Just a floral, ripe plummy explosion on the nose. The palette is surprisingly full being that it is 90% merlot. The tongue is smoky, earthy, blackberry goodness. A delight.
