Nose of black plum, violets and vanilla, with the end presence of alcohol. Palate of Blackberry and plum with moderate amount of vanilla, finishing with some spice and sharp tannins. The 2009 St Francis merlot is by far superior, as it has denser concentration and a much smoother and polished finish.

I decanted the bottle before drinking. The nose is weak with a slight alcohol presence. Pleasant on the pallet but nothing noteworthy. A nice finish with some depth.
