Full body Merlot with limited nose and complex notes of cherries, chocolate and earth notes. Drinks easy and will pair well with most meat and seasoned vegetables dishes. Enjoyed every sip!

This is a beautiful california merlot. As others noted, fruit forward but a nice smooth finish. Over the course of the evening in the decanter, this blossomed into a beautiful wine. I am glad I have 1 more bottle and wishing I had more.

Showing darker than expected purple in color as it was poured into the glass. Aromas of plum and dark chocolate on the nose upon opening; Plum, sage, tobacco, and earthy notes as it opened up. Tastes of plum and black cherry on the palate. Medium body, medium acidity, medium alcohol, and medium tannins. Each sip left a lingering pluminess for over a minute on the palate. This was a typical warm climate Merlot being more fruit forward with softer tannins. Kokomo’s Merlot from Pauline’s Vineyard is noicely balanced and I wish I had more bottles to see how it ages.
