No way I could pop and pour this wine. Decent structure. Nose and palate are almost overpowering with mixed fruits...tannins are heavy and lengthy, especially for a merlot.

Smooth front to back, aroma is a little strong, decent amount of tannins for me.

Not your average silky, velvety merlot (which I don't like). More like a cab than anything.
