| TASTING NOTE: This is fruity and juicy with good acidity and fresh berry fruits. The 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon blend has the right amount of tannic character, showing structure that brings out ripe red fruits and indicates good potential. Drink from 2017. Score - 91 (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 31, 2014) |
