4th Saturday Brown Bagger (R&D's): Vanilla, spice and red fruit qualities on the nose and palate. Tannins are quite austere and there's not much of a midpalate or finish.

This was a pleasant surprise. Very fruity and a rich feel. Expansive flavor and full mouth feel. Did not expect any of that. If I could find more, I would buy in a heartbeat at $17.

This wine does better with time to breathe ... Started out with a bit of a pepper "bite" but softened up nicely and was much more pleasant to drink after about an hour. Velvety on the tongue with a nice hint of vanilla and smooth finish. Glad I have 4 more bottles to enjoy.

Wonderful Merlot. Heavy, but pleasantly ripe aroma. Flavorful and fruity with a hint of cocoa. Long finish. Have one more!
