Attended a Parallel Wines private tasting last night. Very nice and classic in style. Didn’t realize how small their production is...less than 600 total cases. This is their 20th year and Melka has been with them from the beginning.

My favorite red of the evening. This is their reserve label, and it changes names each year. Very smooth. Showing the whole fruit spectrum...red, blue and black. More herbs de Provence here with some savory smoked meat too. Dark chocolate shavings, cherry wood and ripe, sweet fruits.

10 in 19. Still wonderfully integrated. Restrained and elegant, was shocked that it was 14.9 abv. Tobacco. Red savory fruit. Medium-full.

Does it get better than this? Philippe Melka rocks it.
