(2009 vintage) Pretty good valued merlot. Full bodied. Plush but decent tannins and wood which makes it not too sweet (which is refreshing for a new world merlot). I tasted it blind and guessed it was a $20 bottle. Not a huge merlot fan but I would recommend this one for merlot fans who prefer a bit of backbone in their wines.
Very drinkable. Decent value as an everyday Merlot.
An okay wine for me. I liked the sweetness and the viscous consistency, but was a bit sour on the finish for me and a tad too dry.
