Sipping Fine Wine 
Blend of 77% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon; 1% other. deep Ruby with aromas of rich berry fruits and earthy spice tones. On the palate flavors of juicy blackberry and black cherry with sweet spice, licorice and cacao notes. Fine tannins, long finish ending with espresso, oak and mineral tang. Drink now.

If you talk Merlot it’s either: better or not as good as Duckhorn. And only the greats are worthy as better. The ‘16 is deep and long. But needed lots of air to open new dimensions (second night was best). I’ll try to wait about 5 years for the next bottle (nah).

I WILL drink a fucking Merlot (if it’s Duckhorn). Dark, ripe, plummy fruit, dark roasted herbs, and deep gravelly-ness. Very clingy and savory. Great purity and length. I have missed out by not buying good Cali Merlot for a long time.

A pre-Mothers day meal that included an experiment of smoked fish and this was one of the two bottles we decided to pair. While it may not have matched the rub spices exactly, this bottle rarely (if ever) is a poor choice. A classic that we will keep having in the future.
