Funky blend. Sinus clearing spearmint, vanilla, and spicy nose. Merlot takes the lead on the palate, with a chocolate/molasses/mocha finish. Bright acidity which is kind of unusual in reds from these guys. Nice pop n pour.

Did not hold up side by side with '11 Quivet Pellet. Rather simple in style with a weak mid palate and almost jammy finish. Not my style maybe? Others seem to dig it.
