Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Doesn't quite reach the potential of Merlot on Long Island, but still has aromas of vanilla, mint and red fruit. In the mouth the fruit is tart cherry, with eucalyptus and horse starting to show. Has fine weight and tannins, but gets greener on the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Despite some pickled, stalky aromas and flavors, this wine has everything you want in an easy-drinking Merlot. Strong flavors of blueberry, cherry pie and graham cracker are a touch sweet, and the wine has a nice fat quality to its medium body. Aromas need time to open and develop, showing cherry and spice. Oak is prominent on the finish, and this wine should drink well over the next five years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nice aromas of pie crust, red fruit and some barnyard lead to a tart, simple wine with watered-down flavors of red berry.
