Wonderful expression of Merlot. I didn't know Alexander Valley could produce a Merlot of this caliber. Approachable young, incredible nose, great fruit. 2 more bottles to go- heard that 2003 may be even better.

Very tannic when first opened but softened after about an hour.

Wonderful fruit but had nice balance and structure. Definately should be paired with a good grilled strip steak.
