Merlot. The hated grape. This will change your mind. Strawberry, blackberry, & black cherry greet you on the nose, cedar cigar box & pipe tobacco make for a nice finish on the nose. Plum and licorice bind with smooth tannins for an enjoyable, easy drinking Merlot.

Not your typical Merlot on the palate. Tons of fruit, plenty of tannin but pretty well integrated. Opened up as the night went on. 2010
