Took about two hours to come around. Started tannic and smoky and evolved into sandalwood and cherry cordials.

Deep rich fruit profile. Prominent dark fruits with firm tannins. Cocoa nibs on the finish. This is a very well made wine!

Powerful Merlot from the guy who made Pride for many years. 2011 not the strongest year but this was good.

It needed time to open up. Some spice and leather. Balanced. Went well with grass fed New York strip.
