Not bad for this Merlot after 20 years! Was kept continuously at zbout 55- 56 degrees. Good color. Still a bit of fruit- black cherries- soft, round, no tannins. Opened about 1/2 hour before drinking. was fine with a med rare beef though with hindsight I'd have preferred something a bit more concentrated. The legs are Medium. The wine looks Ruby colored. It tastes like and Blackberry. The body is Medium. The wine has Silky texture. The wine finishes Short.

Better on days 2 and 3, even with aeration after opening.
