Typical for its time, slightly overdone Merlot, a more “serious” wine after Merlo had fallen out of fashion.
A bit too monolithic for my taste. I had higher hopes for this wine when I chose it. I know the vintage isn’t a critical favorite, but I rarely agree with the herd.
Decent wine, not great, not unlike the winery’s offerings of the era.
