Haut-Médoc, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday.
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Nose of black fruits with light oak, vanilla, licorice, chocolates and light metals.
Full-bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with black plums, currants, cooked cherries, spices, oak, chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.
Short finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This 5 year old red blend from Bordeaux is tangy, spicy and smooth. Rich and fruit forward with nice complexity.
Drinking nicely now, and will not get any better from this point on.
Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food.
A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.
13% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$20.
