Ruby colored in the glass. Scents of nutmeg, green pepper and slight petroleum whiff. Mild flavors of crushed granite, ripe plum and mint. Finish is flat, never shows. Decanted and let sit for an hour, no change. This is about as good as this one gets.

Not a bad wine at all. More earthy and gritty that I expected from this Merlot. Balanced.... If I had a blind taste test- I would have failed.

This wine was absolutely singing. Pyrazine and fresh red fruits play in perfect harmony while the body shows structure softened by time and bright acidity. A real treat at this moment.

Old Homestead @ Caesars, LV. Mellow spiciness with plum, tangerine and light oak. Refreshing, light dirtiness.
