  Meaty mushroom, leather, spice but the whole experience is still soft. Beginning to migrate to an ox blood color and thin with fast legs.

  Drank over 3 days and held up well. Plum and dark berry fruit predominately. Med body with fine/soft tannins. Great steakhouse wine and enjoyable to drink, but not sure it's worth $50+ retail.

  Not as good as I'd hoped. Been holding this bottle.

  2011 CAKEBREAD CELLARS NAPA MERLOT- tasted blind; this bottle got off to a good start with an inviting nose of fresh dark fruit which was pronounced in the taste profile with plum, blueberry and black cherry all present; it was soft and smooth, had a degree of finesse and finished on a high note with more coming in late
