Christmas 2009; 12/24/2009-12/26/2009: Wow. Big, complex, meaty red wine. The round flvors of merlot with gruff, rough and tumble earthiness. This has to be Washington State merlot- it has such terroir that I would not expect from California. Really nice and made here in Illinois from northwestern fruit!

Bold, lots of character. Has the "Lynfred nose". Consistent cherry/floral nose and strong, but not overbearing earthy finish.

Really cool sour cherry flavor. Needed lots of time. Supported lamb chops well.

Nice, rounded out fruit berry flavors. COmplex- looking for a bigger piece f red meat than what I had for dinner.
