A young Cabernet-Merlot blend from El Dorado grapes, this wine has a medium body with smooth structure and cherry/blueberry flavors. Still quite young, it will benefit from decanting or laying down a bit.

Not terrible. A little acidic with tannins that have barely mellowed. The merlot is lost in the cab blend. Red currants and a little smoke.

Full bodied and strong finish. All kinds of tobacco and vanilla with an oaky touch. Nice back tannin touch. Sushi night just got better!

Very smooth. A little light for my taste but no bite at all.
