It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot!
Deep dark ruby, almost Inky in color, with a reddish rim.
Nose of plums, fresh cherries, earth, eucalyptus, spices and dark chocolates.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, raspberries, plums, currants, spices, tobacco leaf, dark coffee, earth, light vegetables, herbs and peppercorn.
Tangy finish with soft tannins and cranberries.
This is a very enjoyable Merlot based blend from Bordeaux. A nice entry level wine from this winery. Showing nice complexity and good balance.
Drinking very nicely now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 7 years.
Soft and smooth. Easy drinking right out of the bottle, and gets earthier as it opens up (1 hour).
A good food wine that I paired with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 18 months in stainless steel vats and concrete tanks.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$24.
