  August 27, 2021 - A nice old Merlot, one of the earliest bottlings from Silver Oak spinout Twomey. Initial impressions: substantial sediment, moderately brick orange color, with nose of dusty raisins and bell pepper. Plenty of fruit and acidity. After an hour of breathing, color is trending back to ruby, flavor is more complex, with black cherry, blackberry, gooseberry, aromatic wood, mineral; firm yet mellowed with age. Not perfectly integrated, but quite nice.
