    February 3, 2020 - Time has been a friend to this merlot. It has shed its fat and become a beautiful, mature wine. I believe it has entered its prime drinking window and should be good for another 5 years. Excellent!

    September 17, 2016 - Truly a special bottle- love the deep purple color and bright Merlot nose. Somewhat floral but leather and cedar with plum. Really smooth and multi layered. Beautiful.

    October 4, 2015 - Bright dark ruby color. Youthful red fruit, very slight mint on nose. Dry, med- tannin, med acid, med- alcohol. Full, smooth fruit forward with a slight spice med+ finish. Balanced with med complexity.
