A little leather on the nose, a lot of fruit and still plenty of grip in the mouth. Very enjoyable now.

Had this wine in a restaurant in Mainz Germany. The food started out excellent - then became German heavy. The wine itself was excellent

Celebrating the completion of the house renovation, April 2017. On decant, the bouquet was immediate and everywhere. This was awesome. Herbaceous and fruity. The colour was notably opaque. Amazing red berry/cocoa and the 50% merlot presence rounds out a very pleasing palate. Perhaps the best testament of all: Michelle asked me to buy this one again 😂

Too young and not giving up much right now. Lots of potential but some red fruits and wood most prevalent.
