Quite an interesting take on Merlot and definitely a wine I'd like to drink over & over again. Deep ruby in the glass with chunks of sediment. Ripe nose of stewed plums, blackberries, moss, charred wood and sweet oriental spices. Full-bodied with a lovely fruit sweetness to it, grippy tannins and moderate acidity. The alcohol is not overpowering anything here, but more balancing everything out most properly. Good wine if you like 'em a bit on the riper side.

Acetone, morello cherry, sulphur. Tangy sappy fruit. Medium bodied. Still some tannin left. Great freshness.

Unique wine! Candied strawberry, wet wood/moss. Strong secondary and tertiary aroma already noticeable. Palate with (dried) plum, mushrooms and a dense, concentrated mouthfeel!
