Still deep ruby. Saddle leather, plums and baked earth. Palate is super mellow and smooth with a decent finish. Still some nice fruit. Quite incredible that this was under $10 on release and drinking really well at age 23.

All red and black fruit and no veggies on the nose, pleasant and full. Red currant, a little white pepper, vanilla on the palate. Good balance, full bodied for a Merlot, easy tannins.....I'm going to be trying more Merlots for a while. This wine won't change you life but is a good value at $30.

Smooth and well balanced. Hints of licorice on the nose.

Blind Night - Kevin's place (Kevin Stoddard's house): Beautiful nose. Nice and well-balanced. Good, round fruit. (Double-blind. Josh's bottle.)
