Although it may be post peak today's bottle was quite acceptable. Medium bodied it went well with eggplant parmesan The wine has a dark Purple color. The legs are Fast. It smells abit like Blackberry and has a mild Violet flavor. It has a smooth texture with a medium finish.

I had enjoyed a bottle several years ago and bought this bottle a year or so after that. It's been in my cellar for almost 2 years. It wasn't what I remembered. I'm afraid I may have missed the peak. The alcohol seemed to overshadow the rest of the flavors. There were nice spice notes but the flavors diminished soon after the bottle was opened and it quickly became a very dull in flavor. bummer.

Was a fine merlot. Nothing exceptional, but not something to turn your nose up at either.

Simple wine with pleasant fruit and soft tannins.
