I've actually always found the Merlot a little heavy on the tongue, full of rich almost somber flavours, but mellower in finish. The Chateau has an almost brighter, more playful taste, but a sharper more acidic aftertaste. Finding a wine that blends my favourite traits of both wines was like finding a holy grail... filled with really good wine.

You probably listen to classical music, too, but not even good classical music.
