Alright, I suppose. It's a Napa Merlot, that's for sure. Fruit-forward with orange, vanilla and marzipan, big tannins, and a biting, bitter finish. Not my thing, perhaps.

2009 vintage Dec 17. Right time. Beautiful fruit still there. Mild eucalyptus bouquet. Better than majority of merlots.

Great cab lover's merlot. You pay for it though. Going to let it decant and open for a bit and may update the rating.
