This style of merlot is very overdone, with intense dark fruit/plum flavors and a heavily oaked taste profile that is too dense for me. If you enjoy a very strong style merlot this may be up your alley.

Medium purple in the glass, classic plum and blackberry aromas, along with some hints of grilled char or ash. Comes out a bit hot and a bit tannic for a merlot, nearly harsh, but with a relatively limited finish. This isn’t a bad wine, especially for the price, but it’s not a style I find very enjoyable. Decanted for an hour and had with pan-seared pork chops. Not a bad paring.
