No Formal Notes. Consistent with past experiences with this merlot though. Always a quality napa offering that is definitely new world but with some old world notes.

Popped and poured. Dark crimson color. Nose of black cherry, juicy black plums, a bit of vanilla, warm baking spices and toasty oak. Similar flavors on the palate with dark red berry fruit, cigar box, some bitter dark chocolate on the back end, all framed with a nice woody, oak note. Medium acid, medium+ tannin. Plush mouthfeel and finishes smooth. Hits all the right notes for what I look for in a merlot.

Nice balance of fruit and earth notes. Approachable upon opening, but held up well over the course of a few days with vacuum seal.

Solid to exceptional wine. Paired well with several dishes and maintained its character even after opening for several days.
