Another bottle that paid off after 16 years!!! What a delight to see hard work pay off.

This Merlot rocks. It's YUGE as a politician might say. Lots of Rutherford dust on the finish.

Dense, dark - almost black core w/ deep purple meniscus. Deep black olive & coffee aromas. Still loaded with tight grippy tannins. Fruit is dried & smoky - overshadowed by muddy black coffee grind & old leather flavors. Not sure if this will ever lighten up.
