A pleasant and attractively priced merlot. I had forgotten about it and not planned on 11 years of bottle age. It survived pretty well although it does not have enough body or structure to benefit from long aging.

Blackberries and smoke on the nose with hints of cassis and sour cherries. Earthy dark fruit on the palate. More stone fruit and blackberry rolled in dirt. Nice mid-palate blueberry transition to a smoky substantial finish.

I really liked this wine after about 30 min of air. Great price point.

Very soft and silky cherry and plum flavors. Mild tannins and smooth finish.
