Alongside the ‘08 I opened, this had tons of candied red and black fruit! Raspberry gummies, baked blackberry pie, and rhubarb tart. Killer aromatics. Perfumed. Mainly fruit dominated on the palate...fresh squeezed blackberries, ripe plum, currant and a touch of cedar. Will age! Thanks, @Mark Flesher .

Jun 8th, 2019It’s been a lot time since I last tasted a Paloma merlot. Beautiful perfumed nose of plum, raspberry, cedar, thyme, mocha, and hint of violet. Medium to full. The palate is dense and soft with fresh acidic backbone. Supple elegant tannins.
86/14 Merlot/CS.
Paloma and Pride remain my favorite Merlot producers from Napa.
