Wild Merlot. Has the familiar murky stemmy brick colored pulpy whole cluster profile but with some interesting goings ons underneath.

Sparked cedar, smoked jam, fruity tobacco. Lots of VA with lots of crunch. Texture is clean and a little bit slippery - acid fold nicely right into the fruit.

Was hoping for greater cohesiveness and some more interesting notes but worth a try.

Tiny parcel of 5 year old Merlot from d’Arlebosc at 450 meters facing south/south-east. Not the Michel Savel grapes from the Les Marecos Syrah/Merlot mix.
