Tangy but just never seemed to open up and release. Perhaps I’m too late on this 2012 vintage

First time I've had a Merlot with bottle shock. After sitting for a while it was a smooth merlot. Gunpowder on the nose dark fruit and pencil lead in the mouth with long finish.

Easy right out of the bottle. Heavier for a Merlot but still a good, medium body drinker

Great flavor of blueberry cherry and a hint of coffee and a kick of dryness to finish it off
