This blockbuster saint Emilion meets its great reviews. It is my first time with this solid saint Emilion, not the last:-). A merlot driven blend of 90% Merlot and 10% CF, resulting in a deep garnet color, intensive nose full of black cherries, plums, smoked turkey, sweet spices, licorice, full body, firm tannins, great acidity, rich and intense finish. My score 90, drink 2017-2026

Low fruit nose. Not picking up much at first. Dark fruit first sip with a stone fruit core. Needs to open up more. Gonna keep it in the air a bit longer. ....... Nose is still tight. Has a garden at night scent. Tart fruit draw back. Creamy finish. Really wanted this to be better than it is, but there is a certain depth to it that will let the other bottles show up better later.
