Delicious Merlot. Fruity, round, but still balanced.

Such a delicious Merlot. Blackberry and sage with some toasty oak. Juicy but not overripe.

Just ok for Nickel and Nickel. Not very silky or smooth, not a lot of complexity, and a bit heavy.

2013 vintage, very nice with our grilled sirloin steaks. Nice subtle finish and My wife and I enjoyed the smooth finish. I particularly liked the blackberry and cherry leanings.

Deep rich color, excellent legs. Sweet but earthy nose. Light sweet flavor with an earthy finish.

Dusty and leather on the nose. Taste was dominate on the mid tongue and layered to the roof of your mouth. Over time it opened up. Needs a few more years but no more than 4-5. Fun bottle.

Not an avid Merlot drinker but I enjoyed how this Nickel & Nickel Suscol Ranch 2013 was smooth throughout and carried a nice, subtle vanilla flavor.
