May 6th, 2019Nose boasts wonderfully lifted plummy Merlot fruit. Very bright and clear the palate, light-to-medium-bodied yet very well balanced. Definately has a cool-climate feel to it, with its moderate but stemmy tannines and lovely length and cleanliness on the finish. Very nice.
More a Bdx-lovers wine than for those who adore Napa juice.
