Editors' Choice. The aromas bring notes of savory herb and cherry, showing freshness and vitality. The flavors are plump and ripe. Coffee notes linger on the finish. Give a short decant if drinking in the near term and it will deliver on the goods.

Full medium-deep red. Aromas of currant, blackberry, licorice, dark chocolate, spices and underbrush. Supple, easygoing wine with a subtle sweetness to its dark raspberry, mocha and chocolate flavors. Not particularly deep but nicely seamless. Finishes with fine-grained tannins and good breadth and length. This very moderately priced Merlot does not lack for flavor intensity.
