This is an excellent Right Bank wine that is actually 100% Merlot. It has exceptional balance, wonderful dryness, and light flavors like a Pinot. There are flavors of raspberry, plum, vanilla and a floral or perfume like undertone. The wine went ok with the chicken we paired it with, although something lighter was probably in order. This wine will probably age pretty well. I will be adding a couple of bottles to my cellar. It was a special at Whole Foods for $16-a real steal. A nice bottle in the middle of our vacation in Oregon.
