Just shy of jet black in the glass. Nose billows with mint, herbs, and wet dirt. Fuller than full bodied like their cabs with bright fruit, big acidity, and a wet fine grit sand paper tannic finish. Zero green on the palate. The best merlot I can remember having. Killer now I'm sure even better in the future.

Dense velvety personality with a dark core of fruit leading out to rich chocolate, fresh wintergreen and spice. The dark side of Delicious.
