Cahors Merlot

Strong tea, plum, sage, some pepper, crushed granite and twigs. Perhaps some carbonic maceration here.

Good but needs lots of time to unwind.

Hints of tobacco but not overpowering like a Du Pape. Beefy on the nose. Medium body red

Dark fruits at the beginning: plum, black cherry followed by star anise, leather and tar. Earthy texture throughout.

Wine became softer the more air it got. Hints of licorice and blackberry on the nose. Deep, well rounded tobacco and figs and soft but firm tannins finished it out
