  Please disregard my review of the 2014 vintage on 8/8/18. The bottle I reviewed was actually the 2008. Dark purple, smooth tannins. Paired well with beef shish-kabobs. Short-medium finish. Probably slightly past it's prime but still a nice bottle.

  A lovely merlot. Needs to breathe about a half an hour. Great bang for the buck. Drinks well now but give it another year in the bottle and reap the rewards.

  This is still a rich, fruity wine that hasn't lost its pep. Remarkable. I should have ordered cases.

  Franm says it well. This is an enormous wine for relatively few pennies.
