10/17/2022 - megropolis Likes this wine: NRI could not figure out why I expected it to be different until I found WA note that it is Merlot dominant. All the stuffing is there in this wine to be great, but it needs 5 years to really round out. So if I would rate, 90 now, expect 93 at maturity. |

10/13/2022 - megropolis wrote: NROxi factor is there as usual. First day strong lemon peel taste overtakes but by day 2, it rounds out and goes on background and it becomes not a fruit driven wine, but by secondary characteristics. Kind of reminds you aging of the cheeses and works well with aged manchego. |
