    September 12, 2021 - Got a glass here now and it needs time to open; give it an hour and then start with a splash. This merlot comes out dark ruby with a tinge of purple in color. The nose is scented with dark chocolate, cranberry, some raisin, and fresh mushroom. After an hour, the palate is filled with tart raspberry, a light dusting of cocoa, and some hint of tobacco. the fruit is there, but the dark palate is much more prominent, and the finish is nicely tart and the tannins are pretty well integrated. Like everyone else here, I advise that you decant and sip an aliquot until it's ready to drink. It's a very good merlot for the money.
