Fine medium bodied merlot, bit dull at first, really benefits from decanting to open up the flavors. Still though, while it's good, at the price point, there are quite a few better options out there.

Apr 8th, 2020Nice red color. Does not have much of an odor profile. Taste wise is it fine for the money, but definitely not what you expect from a French wine. It’s a bit weak overall and lacks a fruity, earthy, or velvety flavor.
