2011 vintage. Dried plum and prune, light tannic structure. Tons of fruit as to be expected from Tobin.

Unexpectedly complex with forward fruit and significant tannins. A real pleasure.

Pleasingly aromatic fruity nose. Translucent dark red. Dry body with a tannic undertone. Enjoyable but not overly memorable for a Silver Reserve- perhaps stored too long.

YESSSSSSS! I will buy a half case of this delicious 2013 Merrlot. Tobin James has hit a homerun. It has more nose than most merlot and such a delicious introduction body and conclusion that one would think she was drinking nectar of a Greek essayist God. Cerises, a depth that will touch the deep, hidden recesses of your mind. Whiff of prune leaves the nostrils quickly. Gorgeous presentation and atrn to detail. Interesting extracurricular activities.

Very tasty merlot from Paso Robles. Hints of leather and tobacco and smoke in the nose. Fruit forward with a long finish. Yum
