Waves of cherry and strawberry, slightly perfumed. Soft tannins. There is quite a bit of toasty vanilla, but it seemed to blow of quite a bit after an hour. Pretty good wine for this price range, if you like extracted, ripe Merlot.

Decanted for an hour and it needed every minute. Continued to improve over the following two hours. Plenty of new world smokey oak with a smooth blackberry mouthfeel...very modern (read: extracted) style, but also very enjoyable. Huge for a merlot, especially in this price range. Great QPR.

Smoky and very full bodied for a merlot. Very nice offering from Sebastiani drinking quite well right now.
