This is the wine that got me back into Merlot - amazing fruit, round and voluptuous with lovely smooth tannins and 'bring me more' appeal.

A great example of how good Merlot can be. Full bodied but elegant, fruit forward but subtle. Tannins are very sleek for such a young wine. Powerfully structured for a number of years in your cellar if you don't give in to drinking it sooner. Love it!

Mint, vanilla, dried herbs, leather, black tea, and blueberry. Hints of smoke and velvety finish.

Aug 3rd, 2016I feel like someone is baking blueberry muffins while I enjoy the nose on this wine. An elegant, fruit forward wine with great tastes of blue fruit, mocha and spice. The tannins are very sleek, especially for such a young wine. Lots of star anise and spice on the finish. I could not help myself from trying this baby merlot. I will try to put a few of these back to see how they age, although this wine is already fantastic.
