This blend is more similar to Merlot I have tasted here than the pure Cabernet tasted here. I got this one on a walk from small Vietnamese shop. I was surprised they had 05 vintage and as I knew it I got the last 2 bottles they had for CZK 150:). It is very good wine for the price. It is slightly worse than my wines as I had them stored in stable conditions for 4 years, this one was most likely in vertical position and changing temperature.
