Bosco del Merlo

Turranio Lison-Pramaggiore Sauvignon Blanc 2019

This pale yellow wine has a fragrant nose with some grassy, herbal notes, although not as grassy as the Tiare. There is a nice floral element and some tropical fruit, too. The palate shows a great Sauvignon Blanc flavor profile - citrus, minerals, herbs - and an acidity which is pleasant enough without getting too crazy. I sometimes find Sauvignon to be a little much on the palate for my taste, but that is not the case with the Turriano. It is a very nice sip and wonderful match for rice or pasta dishes, especially those with an herbal flair to them. BTW, this wine is Friuli DOC. — 4 years ago

Château L'Escadre

Grande Réserve Blaye Merlot Blend 2016

Red currant, fruitcake, violet, cocoa, baking spice and oak. The wine is full-bodied, with supple tannins and a well integrated finish. On the palate: Goes well with fine steaks, like filet Mignon, It is a blend but at 70% Merlo , read the bottle for the other blend. Must try. 2016 — 5 years ago

Château Paloumey

Cru Bourgeois Superieur Haut-Médoc Cabernet Franc Blend 2014

55/45 CS/Merlo blend.
Fresh, juicy & expressive.
Black currant, dark plum, some light, minty undergrowth, a bit of cassis.
Medium bodied on the palate with very fine yet grippy tannins, juicy, ripe. With a bit of creaminess to the fruit and an overall good flow.
This is really nice.

Giuseppe Quintarelli

Primofiore Veneto Corvina Blend 2017

2017. 9.0-9.1. Quintarelli’s entry-level non-ripasso wine. Explosion of strawberry and cherry fruit but not much backbone or complexity to balance it out. Maybe picks up some tertiary flavors over time but I’d rather pay the extra $30 for Q’s truly special Ca Del Merlo. $50. — 5 years ago
