Black cherry, plum, baking spice and cocoa. M- acid, m body and tannin. Still a lot of structure. Chocolate covered cherry.

Plum, cherry, and baking spice (heavy on the clove) on the nose. Rich, impressively-long finish of fresh earth and cherry. A surprising delight.

Admittedly, very surprised by how well-rounded this was from nose to finish. Clearly, still in it's peak - not bad for 11-12 y/o merlot

Lots of raspberries and cloves on the nose. The palate adds plums and blueberries with some allspice. Very nice Merlot for National Merlot Day!
