  Highly aromatic with hints of sugar cookies behind the strong blackberry; not full tar aromas, but certainly some dampy forest floor and rich soil notes
  
  Tingly at the front of the tongue with a bit of sweetness; salty length and mild bitter finish.
  
  Very smooth overall and well balanced. Mild bite quick to show finesse. Good for a merlot: nothing offensive and nothing to endear me. Good table wine and crowd safe.

  A double magnum was consumed at a neighborhood party. A short decanting period was necessary before it opened up.

  Much more than a standard CA Merlot. Interesting cedar and tobacco notes. Well worth the price I'd say.

  A decent sipping wine for a nice everyday summer evening.

  Nose reminds me of a right bank with some age. The oak is prominent. Some pencil shavings and cassis which give way to sour cherries. Rich and serious but didn't fair too well being left overnight.
