Etihad Business Class & Lounges; 9/9/2018-9/14/2018 (Sydney, Abu Dhabi, Frankfurt): {screwcap, 14.5%} Liquorice, plum, chocolate, currant. Palate has plum, currant and a bit of malt. Some coconut oak too. But it’s still a bit hollow despite the merlot, with a mid-palate dip. Low powdery tannins. Finish is dry but on the short side. Medium-body; seems to have insufficient stuffing for the alcohol level, hinting at very ripe but high-yield grapes. So-so. Another bistro job (Etihad Business Lounge Sydney).
