Saturday, June 18, 2011 - As good as merlot gets .. and from Oz? Crazy soy sauce / balsalmic nose. A seriously plump fruit bomb with tannins completely, perfectly integrated. Full mouth feel, would have guessed more than 14.5% alc. Has a slight earthy [mushroom?] tone that, while adding character, doesn't seem to mesh perfectly with the rest.. otherwise, this might approach "best ever" territory.
Think I need to smoke a stogey after this one. Must. Find. More.
