Thought it was delicious, very silky, and starting to show some developed flavors.

Always surprising, this merlot needs to breathe before it shows its true nature. Gorgeously crafted and so pleasing. Still showing good fruit, but lots of structure and balance.

A complete wine. Could make a strong run at being a Pomerol in a ripe year. Cannot recommend highly enough. Especially if you find it at a good price.
