Night of Merlot with Lianzijia (Newmarket, Auckland): bold, dark fruits, caramel, vanilla, obvious rum hints, sweet alcohol. good on weight and creamy flavours. but lacks acidity, length and layers. easily pleased, easily bored.

bold aromas, dark plum, caramel, vanilla, some cinnamon, clove and other spices. round texture, supple and light tannins, full body, the barrel flavours well support the weight, alc 14.5%, it's bold, oak influenced, simply pleasing, very California style.

You can actually taste a hint of rum. One of my new favorites.

스테이크 소스용으로 매우 좋음. 단맛이 많이 나서 그냥 마시기엔 그냥 그랬음.
