Oak fairly present but integrated. Tannins still strong in this one. A world of difference between the 2010 and 2011. This one showed better.

One of the best vintages from Medlock Ames that I've tried in years. A very solid offering.

For some reason I always like this label. Fun Alexander Valley blend of Cab, Merlot, Malbec from Medlock Ames. Cali fruit with a little old world touch!

2012 vintage. Aroma of black cherry, blackberry and cranberry. Juicy mid palate. Easy drinking. Lingering finish.
