Bit of ink. Some stems and leaves. Very cherry. Like juice. But zingy and spicy. Smooth.

Excellent fruit aroma with a smooth taste and definite hint of blackberries on the taste. Great wine for the price!

Light berry on the nose. Light berries up front. Round feeling in the mouth. Subtle tannins with a hint of vanilla. 2012

Black raspberry, black currant on the nose. Bold tannins, deep sweetness in flavor.

More astringent than most inexpensive Merlots. Full and complex without the typical fruit bomb jaminess
