  almost as good as the duckhorn merlot i had recently. not as refined and elegant, but a little bit more robust and intense and full bodied and rounded. dark cherry, vanilla, mocha, pepper....sweet and hearty. nice layers of complexity for the price point.

  Earthy for a merlot. A little tight--opened up after some decanter time

  Tasted blind. Dark garnet. Black fruit, prunes, figs. Smoked meat and good balance. A little balsamic and roasted nuts. Pretty darned good for the price level. Has some life left. Might get better.

  This bottle had everything I don`t like about south american wine. Vegies, short, unbalanced and acids. I hope it was flawed.
