其實呢支係除389 外另一支令我上引的紅酒. 不過都因為成年前飲, 已經乜印象都冇.
呢支飲都係因為望到呢個廣告之後走左去買, o個時乜都唔識, 飲左覺得超好飲, 同埋勁oak 勁vanilla.
尋日見佢特價, 買左支, 諗住今晚可能會開, 睇下經過一年之後會唔會對支酒改觀先.

相對於一年前飲呢支酒, 而家梗係了解多左好多, 當年唔知點解呢支酒好飲, 而家就可以講得出.
支酒其實開左半個鐘左右已經開晒.

Nose: Pronounced intensity, super nutty, smoke, spice, okay, vanilla, chocolate. 當中nut 同smoke 係好pronounced. Fruit 方面, blackfruit 為主, blackberry, blackcherry, blackcurrant.
Palate: Dry, low acidity, medium tannin, full body. Flavour black fruit, 有少少raspberry, vanilla, black pepper, 同almond, chocolate, coffee, ..., 講到尾, 好複雜, 但以blackfruit, Kernel 同oak 為主. Finishing very long, 20-30 sec.
Overall: Tannin, Fruit, Acid, Alcohol balance 好好. Typical 100% Merlot, 飲落去先出Favour 後到Alcohol, 出Alcohol 時有少少搶過頭, 但係可以接受, 果香同其他香味仍然係度.

100% Merlot 我唔係飲過好多, 飲亦都唔夠呢度d 師兄多, 但以個人黎講呢支係一支非常好o既酒, 好中意, 估唔到南非係可以有咁好o既酒. Price Value 俾分, 10/10. (支酒計埋講價後$280) 而家就終於明白點解舊年會中意左飲紅酒啦....
