  Surprising all the way around - don't generally like Merlot, didn't know i had this in the cellar. Intense but rounded, nice balance of oak. Even a bit of fruit forward with a juicy finish after 12 years. Finish and profile typical of Merlot, but without the drying nature of the finish typical from many. Nice bottle of wine.

  Very pleasant wine. Fairly chewy initially; then wine opens up nicely.

  This wine begins with complex aromas of blueberry, cherry and tobacco. A rich, chewy texture unfolds with high-toned flavors of black cherry and plum with a hint of mint and vanilla bean. Accents of chocolate accompany supple tannins on a long, juicy finish.
