Rutherford Hill
Cask Reserve Merlot
Napa Valley, California, USA
Very drinkable with maybe 15 minutes decanting. Very pleasant Merlot. Layered texture and flavors. Seems like it is complex, but waiting for it to open up. Berry and a tiny bit of spice.

2011. More alcoholic than it should have been. Maybe cellar a bit longer?
