Glorious Beauj raspberry strawberry. Very much Beauj but it also has an earthy not hidden in there. Elegantly balanced as well. Right when opened a lot was going on. It smells like stems. I like that. Another Beauj to go on the rotation for things to look for when it comes out. — 2 years ago

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Dark ruby/ purple in color with a purplish rim.

Light nose of red fruits with chocolate notes.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blueberries, black plums, cooked cherries, spices, light oak, chocolates and peppercorn.

Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 4 year old Merlot from Saint Julien is drinking nicely now. Showing mild complexity and fruit forward.

A good quality Second Wine. Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Will pair nicely with BBQ Meats.

A blend of 80% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Petit Verdot. Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

13% alcohol by volume.

89 points.

$40. — 3 months ago

9.1

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.

Fruity nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black currants, plums, licorice, light oak, chocolates, herbs, coffee, earth, spices, tobacco leaf and black tea.

Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Bordeaux is still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself.

Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Complex and interesting. Fruit forward and elegant.

Easy drinking at this point, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot. Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

This was even better on day 2 Notes from K&L, 88-acre estate, Château de Montfaucon sits just across the Rhône River from the esteemed vineyards of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It is owned and operated by Rodolphe de Pins, a UC Davis graduate and former member of the winemaking staff at Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe. Over the years, Château de Montfaucon has developed a HUGE following among both our staff and customers.The vines for the Mme la Comtesse vineyard were planted in the 1870s (that's not a typo). These old gnarly vines with their highly restricted yields produce some of the richest most concentrated Clairette in the entire Rhône Valley. Planted on a mix of sand, clay and pudding stones, this wine is the essence of sleek minerality. A touch of barrel fermentation adds volume and structure. The flavors resonate with ripe stone fruit flavors and white flowers, a touch of fennel pollen rounds out the finish. This reminds us of Château de Beaucastel's Châteauneuf Vieilles Vignes Blanc which sells for well over $100 a bottle. This is just as limited and just as cool for under $50. — 2 years ago

Syrupy viscosity with a great nose. Enjoyed with toast and four gras as an appetiser. Definitely the right way to enjoy. — 3 years ago
