    March 14, 2022 - Didn’t realize this was my last bottle of 2016 or I may have held off. Great bottle right now though so no regrets. Elegance in a bottle. Fine tannins, dark fruits, persistent finish. Beautiful wine for sure.

    June 3, 2021 - We had not been drinking Bordeaux varietals for some time, but when i fired up some NY Strips on the grill, i had the hankering for a nice Merlot. Boy did the JEC Merlot deliver. Popped and poured thru an aerator, and drank over about 40 minutes, this reminded me why I liked it so much at a tasting a bit back. Lush dark fruit (plums maybe), with a medium to full body and a perfect amount of acidity to keep this fresh tasting and in balance. A hint of sweet tannins on the finish. This went fantastically with the steak. Will have to reorder...Kudos Karen and John for a great bottle.
