Nice wine. Dark fruit. I just had a 2017 Merlot from Lewis, and that was ready. This wine shows it can be played down for a few more years. By 2023, it will be perfect. Cheers

This bottle was a bit different than the one that I drank the other day. Cork was fine. just a bit off. still drinkable, but hopefully my last bottle is like the first one. Cheers

Deep dark red almost purple. Mix of red and black fruits. Ripe and Juicy with gravel nuance and mild spices nuances. Fine tannins, lush from start to finish. A beautiful merlot. Winner ! Cheers!

Sideways be damned, I think I like Merlot. This was a bit smoother than the Chateau Gouprie pomerol that I really like, but at the same time lacks just a bit of the character of that other wine. Just a fun wine to drink.

Dark spicy fruit with a touch of charcoal and tar on the palate. A bit more acid than I expect in a merlot, but not overwhelmingly so. This bottle has a nice long spicy finish.

Wow, this was an amazing wine right out of the bottle and even without decanting. Soft, rounded tannins, velvety dark fruit, beautiful finish.

Ripe and juicy merlot. Very delicious from start to finish. Red fruited, vanilla, Baking spices with decent acidity and medium long finish.

Once again there is a grape jelly aromomatic. Mouthfeel is creamy and round. Well balanced and hard to find fault. Pricey ... there is the fault.
