credit this merlot for sheer enjoyability. it defines merlot as the soft, drink-me-now bordeaux red wine, full-bodied yet instantly likeable. made from 100% merlot, it's extraordinairly rich in cherry fruit, while 100% new french oak adds a deft touch of buttered toast. the tannins are gentle, sweet and complex. this flashy, fleshy wine is great now, and will hold and evolve in the bottle for at least six years.
