Ultra concentrated. Chocolate 🍫 thunder and plum. Silky palate. A steal for the price for Napa Merlot. Paul, you’d love this wine.

A very juicy merlot with lots of plum and cherry fruit they own three vineyards Stanley ranch 60 acres they purchase 50% of their fruit they use. A good amount of ripe berry and plum fruit with notes of herbs and peppery spice a good amount of fruit for a 2011. Excellent!

A little hot for my tastes, but underneath it great blue fruit notes

We lost a bit of the cork but poured into a decanter which caught it. Everyone home for Christmas this was a bottle that I bought in Napa while at my niece’s wedding before getting moved to Shanghai. We we’re drinking a recent vintage when I realized I probably had an older vintage in the basement. Was a great comparison and didn’t last long great quality and still a great wine.

One of the best Merlots that I've had! Nose of strawberries. Very smooth, cherries and ripe fruit.
