John X Merriman Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa
Cab-quest goes on! And this is so good it made this goth heart grin. Although realized this is 52% Merlot whoops. And after that Cab S plus small shares of Malbec, Cab f and petit Verdot (which I personally wanna see more single varietal iterations of). All things aside DAMN it gets the super specific term “yummy”. Red and black cassis, bits of blackberry, allspice and licorice and chocolate goodness! Silky as sin—deceptively easy to drink quickly so beware/enjoy...I’m enjoying but then I’m home alone. Has a lovely refreshing earthy note that keeps on keeping on...

Very nice Bordeaux type blend from S.A.. velvety is the best expression. Flavorful but not overly spiced nor tannic.

Would love to see how this will keep. Very smooth and well balanced blend.

В аромате вишня, чёрная смородина, холодный камень, дым. Довольно полное тело, во вкусе черная смородина, молочный шоколад. Аккуратная кислотность, легкая сладость, алкоголь спрятан. Качественно. 16/20
