Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, October 14, 2020 - I love merlot and I'm an annual fan of this one. This needs more time. What I gathered was a fairly shut down nose. Plush entry. This is cab lovers merlot. Cassis, plum skin and a fairly strong tomato leaf signature (which is in my opinion how merlot got it's bad name a few years back and I found it stronger than I like here). Short, dry finish with some grip. Again, this isn't ready. I'll score my next bottle. This needs another 2-3 years. From my passive, but cold Wisconsin cellar.
