v10. Nice. Dusty, plum nose. Juicy black currant fruit. Velvety smooth, slightly tight , earth and leather finish. Totally balanced and enjoyable.

Bold merlot reminiscent of a cab style. Hints of cherry plum and cedar. Smooth tannins and impressive.

Palatable Merlot with just a hint of sweetness. Very nice! (This was a birthday gift from the Mundays.)

Wonderful, the type of Merlot that would change anybody's mind about the varietal. California version of a Right Bank Bordeaux, with some Rutherford dust thrown in.

Just not a Merlot lover. Nice nose and a nice first taste on the palate but a little rough down the throat.
