(Novelty Hill Merlot Stillwater Creek Vineyard Columbia Valley) Considerably less aromatic than the Columbia Valley offering from the same vintage, this wine is locked up right now with cocoa powder and red fruit. The palate is tightly wound with cherry flavors and velvety tannins. Needs time to open up but a superb value for this level of quality.

Peppery, woodsy nose. Soft fruit, pleasant tannins, somewhat short finish. Good just drinking by itself, not sure how it would pair with food.
