Minneapolis Wine Club California Merlot; 2/1/2012-2/2/2012: Superior to the 2001. Medium purple with aromas of cherry, spices, wood, blueberries and oak. Complex and multi-layered wine. Medium to long finish and drinking well now but could age a few more years.

Aromas and flavors of raspberry, currant, cedar, smoke and mint. Nice flavor profile but this wine lacks structure in the middle and has a short, finish. The elements are their they just didn't come together to justify a higher rating.

An off note of nail polish obscures the nose. It's just fine in the mouth, though. Cedar, berries, a touch of herbs.
