Deep color, no bricking at 25 years. First glass seemed best. But a nice drink with food throughout the meal. — 10 days ago

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!
Nice color of dark ruby with a reddish rim.
Fruity nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, spices, earth and black tea.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with black currants, black plums, blackberries, coffee, herbs, chocolates, light oak, licorice, spices, light earth, tobacco leaf and black pepper.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a delicious Merlot based blend from Saint Julien. Elegant and spicy. Fruit forward and chocolatey.
I've had a few vintages of this wine and it is very consistent and always delicious, especially with age.
This 7 year old 4th growth Bordeaux is starting to drink beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
Well balanced, complex and interesting. Rich and inviting.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 50% Merlot, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged in (60% new) French Oak barrels for 18 months.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

Beautiful even if fading somewhat. — 14 days ago
素晴らしい、あと数年寝かせてもよい。まずはスパイシーな香りブラックペッパー、クローヴ、そしてブラックチェリー、なめし革、タバコ、コーヒー香りが複雑で豊か。
味わいは大きなバランスで、深め。
シルキーよりも少し粒がたつような舌触り。

Medium weight and finish. The 2017 is drinking smooth and easy now. It is a nice bottle for sure but this isn’t quite my jam — 21 days ago
