70% Merlot 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. Switched from beer by the pool to white wine with a shrimp boil and now (because I have to have my red) this slightly dry, smokey red is a good finish to a day spent with friends who I graduated from high school with in Iceland.

2014 vintage
Great bouquet--some floral and citrus. Bit of leather aroma

I must have had a bad bottle because I found this borderline tasteless

Very good, each sip left me longing for another. It is definitely very mild, perhaps it was a little too young. Still pretty good, I accidentally drank the whole thing in an hour or two.

Still have difficulty with Bordeaux's. They seem so mild but perhaps it's because they're not as fruit forward.

This pic is actually of a white Bordeaux, and I like it very much.
