My first Rogue valley wine. Solid if a bit over ripe on the merlot spectrum.

Great tannin and complexity, medium-full bodied. Kind of got a hint of Italian Spaghetti or Chef Boyardee on the nose. That went away after some aeration. A very tasty wine by Willamette Valley Vineyards.

Smooth finish. I caught a hint of cherries. Would definitely have again

Insane nose. Smokey carmelized cherries?!
Pallate- lacking comllexity, as with most Merlot's, blackberry? Pear? Little bitter on the finish.
