Loved this velvety merlot with hints of oak and licorice. A beauty!

A better but heavy merlot. Good fruit with an earthiness flavor that I liked. I wouldn’t start the evening drinking this. It is good to work up to it during the meal.

Not bad for $20 - very non-confrontational

Dark fruit and tobacco on nose, would swear it’s a cab based on the nose. Soft fruit with a nice tannic backbone.

... we like all the Goldschmidt sisters, and the Clinton sisters as well. Had been saving for the inaugural, but are now serving Chelsea and Hillary to our mutually devastated friends who deserve a finely crafted wine. Not over the top, this Merlot is smooth on the palate and refreshing. Chelsea is neither austere nor pretentious, and with it's amazing pedigree, it is certainly ready to lead off tonights dinner with dear friends. Later tonight, we will be enjoying Goldschmidt's "Hillary" as the keynote. Hopefully the delegates tonight will avoid 3rd party shenanigans, and stay thru dessert when we will serve a delicious chocolate cake.
