This is interesting to me. I've had a few vintages of this merlot and enjoyed them all. Even though this is a Michel Rolland styled effort, it shows as an unmistakably new world merlot. Lots of plum and blueberry, very little of the restraint you'd see in a right bank Bordeaux. — 9 years ago

So I've had a few vintages of this wine. Not been happy with them. But this 05, the first one made, is good. Bought on futures. At 11 years it's showing almost the right amount of age. I'd say drink in next 5 years. Well worth under 50 bucks. I think I paid 40. — 10 years ago

Big, bold and transparent to its terroir. It breath, smells, feels and tastes like Napa. And this is what I love about it. Winemaking is not too invasive and the barrel use is present yet not overwhelming. I may be wrong but I feel a Michel Rolland influence here which is ok. Love that there is a great balance between juice, fruit and tannins seriousness. A delicious wine indeed. — 10 years ago

This is really light bodied and elegant, confounding my expectations of CdP yet again. Pretty, great acid and crystalline red fruit. — 10 years ago

If my research is correct, the 2007 vintage of Phélan Ségur is pre-consultation with Michel Rolland. Parker routinely scored these wines in the mid-to-lower 80s, clearly he didn't care for them. The 2007 is old-school Saint-Estèphe, with brooding aromas of coffee grounds, black currents, barnyard funk and freshly overturned soil. Fine tannins on the attack, tinged with cedar, and smartly capped off with dried herbs and minerals. For its price, I found it to be enjoyable. — 10 years ago

A beautiful, elegant Bordeaux blend from Bolgheri, Tuscany. We don't know how you can go wrong with combining the Antinori family and consulting winemaker Michel Rolland! — 11 years ago

Mocha with soy, Twizzlers (red), pipe tobacco, orange peel potpourri and some faint wet clay. And for the record, I didn't want to like this... Damn you, Rolland. — 10 years ago
