Beautifully aged Merlot. Nice mocha and plum with cedar notes showing after a bit of time in the glass

Muted red cherry fruit with still much dusty earth, and tar.
Mildly pleasing. A little off nose, maybe a little bret. This wine still has acid, but the fruit is lost and the finish weak.
Nice with a strong acid touch. Fruit is restrained but mostly good balance.
Drinking great. Beautifully balanced. Should be fine for another year or so, but I don't think it's going to improve, so enjoy it now!
Smooth & rich. Drinking really well right now.
