One of the best Merlots I have had from Howell Mt. Delicious but could have aged for a long time. Nice ripe dark fruit showing a light ring of straw and showing its age. Deliciously smooth tannins and drew us back for more and more.

Damn good. Aging well - fruit forward but well integrated tannins and acidity. Got more legs left in it.
