November 8, 2019 - Nice color with hints of strawberry.
September 9, 2016 - This is my last bottle and a good thing too: It is on the decline. The rich fruits from my previous notes are more muted. For my palate, there were no secondary notes from aging. It was still a good pairing to our filet mignon, but it was missing that wow factor from bottles I opened last year. Did not get better with air, which I knew would be the case as this wine has always been ready to go on open.
If I had to rate, it would be an 87-88 today (down from 91). Drink now!
September 12, 2015 - This is a really nice wine that will only improve with some age. Decanted for sixty minutes. This wine has some body and structure. It really coats the mouth. Went great with grilled sirloin off a charcoal grill. Great mix of oak, espresso and some leather.
April 12, 2015 - Really poor. My have been a substandard bottle,
February 24, 2015 - Smooth. Balanced. Delicious.
November 2, 2014 - Decent merlot, a little hot on the back end.
October 27, 2014 - - It's balanced with a medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish - Very nice one. Had a moderate fruit flavor. Was smooth and easy to drink as a standalone wine. We enjoyed it very much would definitely do it again. Opened about one hour before drinking and serve through an aerator.
September 4, 2014 - Very good Merlot.
April 29, 2014 - VERY nice merlot! Poured a beautiful dark garnet color with dark stone fruit (dark plums)/dark fruit (blackberries) on the nose and palate. Nice integration of 'wood' and acidity making for nice balance. Enjoyable! I wish I had more!!
March 20, 2014 - Decanted, light on the nose. Rich color. Bland but ok.
