This is sort of a middle of the road wine to me. The nose was underwhelming, with muted hints of cherry and spices. This is a medium to light merlot. It drinks okay but to me is lacking some of the better qualities that makes merlot such a great glass of wine. Overall, a Tuesday night nexflix drinkable wine.

Salted caramel and vanilla nose with black tea, vanilla, dark cherry and clove on the palate. The finish is slightly brighter than the mid-palate going tart with moderate acid.
