  March 28, 2016 - opened 2 hour in advance perfect. VERY dark fruit, especially for a merlot. More like a Bordeaux blend. Still good body and good fruit. Tannins tame but nice. Wonderful old merlot, French style, complex. balanced. wonderful food wine.

  August 1, 2010 - Nice well rounded Merlot. Still has a mild tannic finish. Should go for some more years.

  November 19, 2008 - Nice vibrant fruit on the nose. Blackberry and blueberry pop out. Medium bodied wine with nice fruit taste. Some oak on the relatively short finish. Some tannins that suggest that the wine will age 2-4 years. The wine lacks the pop and the mouth feel to make it a 90 point wine. I feel like I can get this wine for $15 somewhere else.
