  November 14, 2010 - Hints of blackcurrent with an acidic tang, nice and smooth with a warm undertone, complimented the wife's shepherds pie :-)

  April 11, 2008 - Huge fruit on the nose when you uncork the bottle. Lots of dark, red fruits, chocolate and a hit of veggies on the nose. This is a really dark tasting merlot, not the typical chewy, jammy style. This wine keeps its true intentions hidden from you until the mid pallet, coming through with chocolate, dark cherry, concentrated cola and berries; add some oak and a kick of some cab like tannins and there you go! Finish is a little disappointing after the for and mid pallet experiences. I can't wait to try this again in a year or so. Buy and hold!

  September 24, 2007 - Suprizingly nice, really good fruit and some complexity, more than I expected for price

  August 30, 2007 - First buttery toast, then blueberry yoghurt. Soft tannins. Not bad, but the yoghurt is overpowering
