Amazing wine from a poor vintage. Grapes source from the hills and Felip Melka behind you get as a result this nicely balance, full body, mineral and dark fruit wine. I believe this wine is going to evolve gracefully over the next 5-10 years...

The first bottle I had months ago must’ve been compromised as it was definitely ready to drink. This bottle was just so much more fresh with a lot more fruit and still had some unresolved tannins. I wish I had more I would love to tases in two years.

Fantastic but still too young to open now. Taste upon open was a spciy green pepper & french oak bomb. Decanted and let sit for 90 minutes, the pepper subsided and the elegance and velvety tannin came thru.
This blend will be tremendous in 3-4 years from now as the merlot & cab sauv come together.

Well balanced and nice mountain fruit. Midium finish. Decanted for one hour and places back into the bottle for another 2 hours.
