'12 jumping goat is a lush wine with loads of fruit & soft tannins.

We were the first group to taste at Melka's new tasting room. As a huge PM fan, it was a delight. Yes, the St. Emillion and I shared a moment!

Damn, the Goat was talking tonight / this is one of my Melka faves and it only gets better with a little air.

Clearly a well constructed wine. Kirsch/compote. A bit too much jam for me at this point but I have a bunch and will look forward to readdressing in another 24 months or so.
