An interesting, off-beat Merlot that successfully marches to a different drummer. There’s a leathery, meaty quality to the blackberry and cherry fruit flavors that probably comes from the Syrah in the blend. It’s also bone dry and fairly rigid in tannins. From an organic-certified vineyard.——S.H.(8/1/2008)—— 92

This is a very ripe wine that floods the mouth with black cherry, chocolate and smoky oak flavors. The tannins are soft and complex. Drinks a bit too sweet and simple, especially at this price.——S.H.(4/1/2005)—— 86

Good depth to leather, blackberry, lavender and black currant notes, wrapped in modest tannins and mocha flavors. Drink now through 2005. 650 cases made.??–JL??Region: California / Carneros / Napa Valley Carneros Select to Add

Tight, with a smoky, charred edge to the core of coffee, plum and currant, it fans out and turns spicy and tannic. Drink now through 2003. 224 cases made.??–JL??Region: California / Carneros / Napa Valley Carneros Select to Add
