V11. Very good. Soft tobacco nose. Jammy black currant with plum undertones fruit. Smooth, slightly tight leather and black pepper finish.

Jun 30th, 2019Nicely balanced. What green there is, is balanced with oak tannin and fruit. Right now. Green minimalized most appropriately. Nicely done Merryvale. Would be delicious with top shelf peppered beef over rice. Id happily hold another three years for further evolution, or happily enjoy now.
