So what a difference time can make - this is young and powerful and bold and big red fruit - still young - but decanted for two hours and bam wham big time good - I love the integration of the 57% merlot and 43% cab franc - thank you Phillipe Melka for such a wonderful mastered crafted wine - bravo and deep smiles

Has that Melka nose yet it ends there. Tannic and high acidity. It's trying to find its place. Maybe more time in the bottle??? Not sure. Not worth the price.

67% Merlot, 33% cab franc, don’t know what the other 1% is? Really like this now that it has some age. I drank other bottles too early.

Truly a wonderful merlot. Not too heavy on fruit. Lovely finish.
