8th bottle of tasting party. Bit nose & full earthy vegetal plate with notes of mild dark fruits. One of the top 2 wines of the night. Probably at it's peak, so if you have them drink them now.

Solid merlot, probably a bit past it's prime. A good example of cool climate merlot, early, red fruit, nicely evolved tannins, slight bricking but still holding on.

Dark cherry and cola on the nose, some floral notes in the background. Full bodied dark fruit with considerable bite. Nice solid tannins on the finish. Very solid merlot.

No specific notes other than remembering that it was drinking rather well straight out of the bottle. Very good all around merlot

Paired really well with beef, no big surprise there. Great flavor. We drank it too quickly and wish we would have bought another one...
