"deep garnet red, with a complex aroma of dark berries and subtle oak vanilla. A soft round entry builds to a creamy balanced mid palate of dark fruit and vanilla carrying to a long lingering finish."

Nice Meritage but not spectacular takes a little while to open to mellow out. It has a bite when first uncorked.

Decent fruit but I couldn't get past the alcohol heat I how or with each sip. Maybe better in the winter?

Several of us enjoyed the 2013 vintage in 2019. A bit of a bite. Nice nose. Others felt the Malbec predominanted. Easy to drink without food
