It was very nice. My wife and I loved it. There was a balanced amount of dark fruit, cherry in particular. Extremely enjoyable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Another lower alcohol (13%) wine last night. A New Zealand Merlot by 'Giesen'.
Negligible bouquet even an hour after opening (they say "generous aromas of dark berry fruit...") with a well balanced soft plum and blackcurrent palate. A competent quaffer.

Margaux is probably my most favorite Bordeaux -- so well balanced from start to finish. Hope you gents have a great weekend!!! Cheers!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I love my wife. After one nice bottle of wine it took almost no effort to talk her into a Three Some.

Yeah, they are very unpretentious and make some nice blends. My wife loves candles. I'll have to see if they sell them online.
