92 Points

Saturday, December 10, 2016 - A private tasting (Restaurant De Ertepeller, Papendrecht. NL): Tasted blind. Mature but lively appearance; ripe and spicy nose, Grenache-dominated, spices, hint of barnyard, smoky, warm chestnuts, glowing, liquorice; supple and rounded palate, like an old Châteauneuf, mature, transparent; complete finish, very good length. We were all extremely surprised to hear that this was a Merlot!
