Dark fruit for days but focused and weightless. Still a baby compared to the ‘18. The last glass 9 hours after opening was the best. — 3 months ago

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Very fresh nose of cherries, plums, light oak, licorice, spices, herbs, chocolates, tobacco, earth and minerals.

Full-bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blueberries, black plums, fresh cherries, light oak, spices, chocolates, black tea, dark coffee, herbs and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This is a delicious Merlot from Saint Emilion. Rich and engaging. Elegant and fruit forward with a silky soft mouthfeel.

This 8 year old Merlot is still young, but already drinking beautifully.,and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Complex and interesting. Nicely balanced and spicy. Loved smelling on it for a while.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food.

A blend of 77% Merlot and 23% Cabernet Franc. Aged in (56% new) French Oak barrels for 18 months.

14% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$125. — 2 months ago

2011 vintage. First time with this producer. Purchased an out of town bottle (along with a buncha BDX) approx two months ago and finally got around to driving 1.25 hours one way to pick up. Pressed immediately into service tonight. Sweet fill and good cork. Nose a bit musty. Not decanted as I was at home and too lazy for the hogsheads of real fire and whatnot. Light-medium body. Sultry notes of cinnamon, tangerine peel and slightly carmelized brown sugar betwixt drought earth and brackish water. Doesn't exactly sound like an Oscar for a memorable performance but this was firing. Lengthy finish. At the top of the bell curve and tastes like it'll remain as such for another 5-6 years. In that oh so sweet spot for dynamite, 1er Cru red Burg. At (only) roughly $170 a bottle (including shipping this time), purchasing four more bottles as we speak. I'd like to thank the Academy...er...the credit card. 12.10.24. — 7 months ago
