I'd gotten this wine for a party contribution, and I couldn't take more than a sip of it. I don't know if it was skunked or just that bad but down the drain it went.

Tasted blind – deep ruby, clear. Youthful nose of spice, black cherries, black currant, confected red candy notes with a strong sweet vanilla note in there as well. Flavours of spice, black fruits. Light to Medium body, medium acidity, low to medium tannins, medium finish. Drink now. Average.

Ripe, round, and not nearly as bad as some have thought. Nothing spectacular, but no flaws either.

The merlot did jump from the glass; It drank very fruity and smooth.
