Nose has blueberry jam, toasted cedar plank, cocoa powder, ripe plum, prune, spring violets, wet blackberry and corner brownie.

Palate has dried blueberry, juiced plum, milk chocolate, (light) sweet red pepper slice, semi-dried blackberry, dried raspberry with fully resolved tannins. This bottle could easily hold thru 2025, in proper storage.

Last bottle from a full case we purchased in February 2005. We're really going to miss this wine, had been our favorite Merlot of all time from CA. An epic vineyard.
