  The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are fast. There was some sediment in the bottle. The nose was a bit weak. It tastes like cherry. The body is light/medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

  Took to the Corkscrew. Was a great tasting Merlot. Stood the test of time.

  Licorice and wood/forest notes come through so slightly spicy. More body than some other Merlots. Not much of a bouquet though. Flavour was better after being open for half an hour and warming to room temperature.

  Past its time. Not oxidized but just fat and lifeless. Too bad

  Very good. Deep purple color. Alcohol on the nose. Flat grape and alcohol flavor. Kind of disappointing compared to my previous experiences...
