A disappointing bottle that wasn't on par with others I have had from earlier and later vintages from this line.

Certainly not full-bodied but rather light with some acidity. Easy drinking but not a strong merlot so I shall steer clear of the 2015.

Love merlot at the moment! Nice and fruity, well balanced, woody.

Fruity with berries giving a slight bitterness. Good aftertaste.
