2005. With some air and time it opens up and the oak and Cabernet Franc mellows. The Merlot is great in the drivers seat. Great at dinner for the price and to pair with a few different dishes. Very nice, approachable wine.

Earthy, a little chunky and full flavored. Seemed like a nice bit of Merlot in the blend, was perfect with big piece of 55 day aged protein!
