3 good things about a 3 day weekend. Dodgers vs Padres with Kershaw on the hill followed by one of my favorite merlots. The mailbox reserve is right up there with Paloma and Switchback--rich, weighty and lush. Spring mountain does something with merlot that makes me seek them out. The '13 is still youthful and needs time to shed some tannin so I'd hold for optimum enjoyment.....and optimum enjoyment is always the goal. Happy Labor Day weekend 👷🏽💼🍷🍈🍈

Double decanted and still needed almost two hours to start opening. Impressive dark fruit, mouth-watering acid, good depth and concentration. Nicely balanced and keeping the 14.8% abv in check. Can't wait to see how the rest is showing tomorrow night.

If you like bold reds but do not care for Merlot, you either are still learning about wine or you simply haven’t tasted Keenan.

Black-ish red fruit, earth, spices, tobacco. Rich, smooth texture. Great body and length. Beautiful and primary now...decades to evolve. This is top shelf Cali Merlot.
