Heavy on the dark fruit. Round and lush on palate - felt like it didn't have an abundance of structure. Crowd-pleasing for Napa fans.

Tasting notes from the Fort Worth Food & Wine Festival...
For $40/bottle, this is a really outstanding merlot blend. Medium body, mid colored fruits, smooth tannins.

Great wine for the value. Nice blend that really opened up after we let it sit for a bit. Time to drink this vintage in my opinion.

Have no idea why these ratings so high. This was harsh, too much alcohol and just generally bad.
