The wine looks Ruby colored. The legs are Slow. It smells like Forest floor, and Light toast. The body is Medium. The wine is textured Bright. The wine finishes Short.

Huge fruit on the nose when you uncork the bottle. Lots of dark, red fruits, chocolate and a hit of veggies on the nose. This is a really dark tasting merlot, not the typical chewy, jammy style. This wine keeps its true intentions hidden from you until the mid pallet, coming through with chocolate, dark cherry, concentrated cola and berries; add some oak and a kick of some cab like tannins and there you go! Finish is a little disappointing after the for and mid pallet experiences. I can't wait to try this again in a year or so. Buy and hold!

Hints of blackcurrent with an acidic tang, nice and smooth with a warm undertone, complimented the wife's shepherds pie :-)

Suprizingly nice, really good fruit and some complexity, more than I expected for price

First buttery toast, then blueberry yoghurt. Soft tannins. Not bad, but the yoghurt is overpowering
