Ryan got me a bottle of this. I really enjoyed it. — 3 months ago
Who says Merlot can not age. This is delightful. I would say there is just a hint of browning at the edges but this is a big glass and if I had, had this with mom at the restaurant instead of the Tor - you never would have seen it. It is rich and full on the palate. Finish is long. I think the nose is a bit muted but given its age super nice — 10 months ago
Dark plums, vanilla, oak, chocolate, and hints of eucalyptus in the nose. Explosive rush of dark fruits carried further by a 14.5% ALC from the first followed by a satisfying blend of oak and vanilla with a dollop of chocolates. The finish is long and smooth favoring oak, vanilla, and pepper and a silky smooth mouthfeel. — a month ago

Loaded with deep red and blackberries, cocoa, and subtle undertones of oak. The tannins are perfectly softer and easy drinking — a month ago

Always ready to drink but still have solid impression. It means it still has a potential for long term aging.
