Baron Phillippe De Rothschild Merlot 2010
Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 7, January 4, December 16 and November 20.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
 | Colour: Violet-purple. Nose: Typical of a wine from sunny climes, the nose combines multiple berry fruit aromas, especially strawberry and blackberry, with subtle notes of leather and spice. Palate: The wine fills out on the palate throughout the tasting. Intense fruit is immediately apparent on the attack, followed by peppery notes. The intensity is underpinned by fine, persistent tannins that never dry the mouth or become astringent, leaving an impression of refinement and lightness. |
