One of the better CSM reds I've had in a while. Great balance, medium tannins, and juicy acidity. Blue fruits all over the place, especially on the nose. Good stuff that has another 5-7 years left at least.

Very smooth merlot with good fruit. Typically the Ethos merlotis pretty big, often tasted after the cab in a lineup. This one was smoother, and the fruit was a little more forward, while still being a very well balanced wine with good depth and structure.

I am a fan of aged Ethos but did not appreciate this vintage for the merlot. Overripe, stemmy cooked fruit, low acid. Meh.

Was very tight and hot when opened. Two days later was much better. Needs time.

Rounded flavors, smooth taste of red fruit. Mild tannins and light acidity. Aromas of red fruit. Not much complexity to this wine.
