Really concentrated nose of dark fruits, vanilla, and cola. Voluptuous fruit on the front end of ripe plums and chocolate, turning into dark cherries and fresh dates mid palate and finishing with sweet cranberry juice. Not bad. A little boring.

Very complex for a merlot, good blend of berry, pepper, and a long finish.

Great little Merlot for the price ($11). Lite on tannins, medium fruit. I would buy it again for sure.

Jammy and chocolate. More flavor punch than a lot of other organic wines.
