I'm impressed! Not only was it a more than drinkable 20 year old Merlot, it went in my fridge for three days after maybe a glass and a half were drank, and wow was it super smooth and mellow on the reopening! And still a slight tannic structure, well integrated oak, and believe it or not there was still some appreciable fruit! And at around $40 shipped/bot, I'm quite pleased I bought two! I have to recommend some duration of a decant though, probably at least 30-60 minutes, if not a slight aeration before (re-bottling and?) throwing in the fridge for a day or two. Some old wines taste... well, they taste old... but because they made the journey without getting ruined, you appreciate them for what they are. This was much better than that.... :)

2015 DeLille Cellars Rosé
4/11/2019 - CamraMaan Likes this wine: 92 Points
This was my first DeLille Rosé, and I have to say I was impressed! Maybe it's just my style, but I thought it was one of the best Rosés I've had, but I'm rather new to the style, so take it for what you will. The directly previous TN's are pretty spot-on, I just feel like the total package is very well put together and balanced, and frankly quite delicious! I'm reeling it back with 92, because I want to say 93.... It's tasty juice!
