Super jammy fruit forward - very drinkable Merlot. We are enjoying this after dinner with cheese course: aged Gouda, smokey bleu, & Spanish goat

Chewy and tannic. Past its prime, perhaps? I vote no.

Smoke at first, a little chocolate after. Dried raspberry, dried rosé petals. Blackberry, big tannins, gritty texture. Big wine. Lots going on on the nose!
