  Clear garnet with no rim browning. Fig, black plum, cigar box, chocolate. Medium to high acids, medium tannins. Black pepper. Medium balanced finish.

  Very nice, full bodied merlot. Love the bouquet: hint of chocolate and tobacco. Smooth velvety finish.

  Decanted and drunk immediately. Christmas spice and blackberry on the nose, some cedar. Palate has pepper, berries. Prominent tannins, on the rough side for a merlot. Seems tight - wish I had let it sit for an hour or two. I think it has good potential, maybe needs another year or two, and certainly some more time to breathe.
