It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Strong nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Showing black fruits with cedar, chocolates, coffee, light earth, herbs, tobacco and black pepper.

This is a delicious Merlot from Saint Emilion. Complex and nicely balanced. Rich and spicy.

Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already drinking beautifully.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. A great vintage that is very giving at the moment.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.

A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 22 months in new French oak barrels.

15% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$50.
