This remarkable bargain from broker Jeffrey Davies has a rare (for Bordeaux), screw-capped finish. Made from 100% Merlot, it is a Bordeaux fruit bomb offering plenty of chocolate in its Merlot character, soft tannins, medium body, and excellent purity. It is even available in a 3-liter bag in a box, which should provide serious relief for financially stressed wine consumers. Drink it over the next year.
