Deep ruby colour. Pronounced and developing nose with charred wood, clove and red plum. Pronounced taste of charred wood, clove and red plum. Medium long and dry finish. Medium acidity. High tannins. Full body. a good Napa Valley Merlot that lacks some length and complexity. Drink now or over the next couple of years. Goes well with beef or lamb.

This was underwhelming. Tried over the course of a few days and it didn't change much. Seems the high alcohol and dry tannins aren't integrated with the fruit.
