Seductive sweet Skeena cherry nose with a framing of cedar and Ecuadorian cocoa. Assertive, plump and juicy Avalon Plum on the tongue , complimented by subtle green peppercorn spice and dust bowl Rutherford tannins on the closing attack, with surprising whimsically bright tannins. Damn good!

Lovely Merlot. Very strong dark fruit on the nose. The balance is good. Body provides a nice mouth feel. Lots of mocha flavors on this one. Lingering tannin finish is nice.

(17/20) Довольно насыщенный аромат с нотами красной сливы, отвара шиповника, ментола и ванили. Довольно высокая кислотность и гладкие, деликатные танины. Красная слива и вишня во вкусе. Очень хорошо! #decanterfwe

Not generally a Merlot fan but this one was better than many I've had. Licorice and a brief hint of leather and berries on the nose. Tart berry smooths out quickly to a choke cherry (a wild berry found in the mountainous West) dry finish on the tongue.
