The name may remind you of that fantastic bottle of Dona Paula Malbec and Cabernet Franc, but do not let it confuse you this is a totally different wine and although a nice bottle its nothing compared to the quality of the Cabernet franc i sampled earlier in the year.
For starts this is a Chilean wine and young at 2007. Like most Merlots it holds a full bodied ruby red colour. On first impression its bouquet is full of wood and a slight aroma of freshly cut grass, the taste is rich and coats your mouth like melted chocolate but leaves a taste of ripe berries and plums which slowly dissipates leaving you waiting for something extra, only it doesn't quite deliver and as you can see in the picture i was tempted on adding some extra flavour/excitement but that would be sacrilege so i refrained.
I do like this wine it was easy to drink but it left me wanting more, and now i have really started to enjoy tasting my wine instead of just drinking it, i became disappointed because i could drink each glass too easily and it left me nothing to savor and before long the bottle was empty.
