A cab drinker's merlot. Softened tannins but plenty of structure and resolve. Deep red color, floral hints and plant of great Pritchard Hill dark red fruits come through. Finish lasted 30 plus seconds with an ample full mouth feel. I think its drinking beautifully right now and may get better with one more year of aging, but its very approachable now

Three hour slow ox. Deep dark ruby color. Crème brûlée, dark chocolate, stewed red plum, and blackberry on the nose. Smooth, dry palate. Firm, full tannins on the longish finish.
This was nice, but had an overall liqueur vibe that I didn’t love. They don’t do these Merlots very often I’m told.

I had it blind and tasted like a mountain Cabernet. Its at a good place now and will get better with some time in the bottle.
