  January 30, 2016 - 1/30/16. Well integrated red with cherries first and jam later. Soft tannins.

  October 5, 2013 - Older Washington Wines (Acadia, Portland, OR): Ethiopian espresso on the nose, then sweet red cherries on the palate, some graham cracker, then dark chocolate on the finish. Glad we drank this last of the reds in the lineup.

  March 21, 2012 - other than the cork falling apart when attempting to extract this wine was surprisingly very good. Still has very nice soft tannins and dark fruit that develops over time

  January 3, 2010 - Yet another confirmation that this is the worst Meritage amongst its Ste Michelle peers.

  May 7, 2009 - The worst meritage from ste. michelle that I have had, we didn't dump it out, we drank it, and as far as wine goes, it wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't good considering the price.
