  Initial nose of licorice quickly opened up to toasted oak, pepper, caramel and cinnamon. Medium body. Mild tannins and lingering finish. A real pleasure on its own or with chile cheese squares.

  Plummy, dense perfect Walla Walla merlot. A beautiful version of a fruit bomb.

  Not decanted. I think this would actually benefit from another year or two. The aromatics were very nice, pretty, with rose-tinged cherry. The wine really tightened up after nearly an hour in the glass, but still let forth some of the suave yet focused and vibrant fruit that I think characterizes so much of what Woodward Canyon does best.

  Coffee bean and vanilla on the nose. Cherries and blackberries on the palate and medium spice
