Not outstanding, but a good, clean serviceable Merlot, well suited to everyday drinking. Light to medium bodied and very smooth. Very consistent vintage-to-vintage and improves after a year or so of bottle age.

(Coppola Diamond Merlot) #2; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-some really nice black cranberry; little black currant & black cherry; a little Oak coming through; ; PALATE-little oak, but not over-the-top; a little fake fruit, but kind of juicy; a little more complex and balance than I expected, but this tastes like a $7-$10 merlot; GV-82/83

Way past its prime, my fault. Generally a good, reliable, California Merlot for everyday drinking. Cheers.

Medium bodied and flavored. Decent to average Merlot. Red black color with berry and iron on the nose. Dry blackberry and cherry

A rather straightforward wine, black fruit, some coco, oak, decently made and perfect with a sandwich.

Ok, less inspired than what I would have expected from previous versions. Mildly disappointing as a result.
