Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe dark fruits, sweet herb spice and espresso notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry, plum and black cherry with toasty oak, cacao and espresso. Fine soft tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and sweet pepper spice. Still has room to age, but nice now!

Smooth but full strength impression across the palate. This is such a beautiful Merlot year after year.

Excellent Napa wine with blueberry pie, BlackBerrys some oak and dark crushed fruit flavors. A hint of spice box.

Our fault for getting it way too young,  Still very bright and vibrant but you could tell but it could use some aging to develop its silky and mellow aspects. Great potential.

2nd half price bottle tonight at Eddie Merlots. Best Merlot on the list, but $44 tonight. Quite frankly the Non vintage $20 House bottle of Merlot was equal….

Delicious…reminded me of The Prisoner with a hint of cinnamon.

Pepper, cherry, blackberry, and oak. Tastes more like a Napa can than a Merlot but it’s good.
