Deep purple color. Nice legs to the wine. Immediate alcohol , floor cleaner and smoke on the bouquet with rum and berry. A lot of tannins with this. Hangs on for at least 30 sec. deep dark cherry. Paired with the veal rhubarb and Swiss chard.

Not only one of the best Merlots in California, but a serious challenger for the great Merlots in Bordeaux. Highly acidic, massively tannic, and hugely fruity with black cherry, blackberry, and black currants, that is muscular and powerful enough to arm wrestle with any Cabernet Sauvignon, and yet evolve into a supremely lush and caressing wine when aged for 20 years.

A great mountain Merlot that still has tons of fruit there. Another 5 years for sure. Cheers
