So satisfying and it’s only getting better. Probably the best Merlot I’ve drank in terms of QPR.

I’ve been impressed by the ageability of the winery’s inexpensive bottling, and this is no exception.
The nose is deep and welcoming, with blueberry pie, plum, licorice, dark chocolate, warm spice, and just touch of barnyard. The palate, while not complex, is warm and plush with balanced flavors. Silky tannins.
This will have the staying power for another 5-8 years. Can’t ask for more for a $15 bottle!
