With a nose of herbs, dry fennel and lavender, this wine immediately commands attention. On the palate, an elegant balance of herbs, pepper and savory fruit offers a delicate and approachable character. Pretty and unique.——S.K.(6/1/2008)—— 89

Loads of spice-laden black cherries and cinnamon can be found in the aromatics of the 2003 Merlot. A plush, plummy, medium-bodied wine, it bursts on the palate with seductive black fruit and spice flavors then quickly dissipates. Drink it over the next 2 years.

Displaying style and character, this mid-weight Merlot ‘s complex nose shows classic berry, plum, mocha and earth flavors, with interesting cinnamon and olive accents. The round palate shows solid flavors of plum, cocoa and coffee as well as good texture and fruit to acid balance. Finishes with moderate tannins, offering good near-to mid-term aging potential. ——W.E.(3/1/2001)—— 90
