Took a while to open up, but what I did was wonderfully floral and Friday. Not much depth but worked well for what it was.

Full bodied Merlot with complex flavours of berries, cigar box and some cocoa. Soft tannins and a full mouth feel. My kind of wine!

Subtle flavor with Woody flavoring

Savoury, subtle yet with some intensity & complexity, balsamic and woody, spicy, with emerging aromas of first fruits & sous bois. Medium weight, some elegant tautness with balancing richness & smooth tannins. Expressive 'new world' fruit with old world style. Nice drinking

Pungent nose of ripe red berries, cranberries, dried herb,
Soft and grainy tannin, a bit spicy, cigar box, coffee
