  Just ok for me. Needs about 20 - 30 minutes to open up in glass. Fruit forward with some structure, but nothing stands out about it. Definitely better out there at this price point.

  Big and fruit forward. Long finish. Very different from, but my favorite of an '06 Twomey, '09 Plumpjack, '05 Lewis and an '08 Pahlmeyer.

  I thought this was WOTN at the K&L T-Vine tasting a couple weeks ago. It seemed quite aggressive for a Merlot with big chunky tannins, but it was enjoyable on its own.

  A very typical t-vine wine...which is a great thing. I can't say it is my favorite of theirs, but it is still beyond delicious. Not at all a typical merlot; high alcohol, big-juicy fruit, yet smooth, rich and long finishing.
