The 2013 Merlot is a touch lighter than the brooding and rich 2012. The nose is soft and inviting with driedprovencal herbs, cherries, plums and just a hint of dark bitter chocolate. The palate is medium bodied with sweet,red fruits and further complexity from notes of cigar box and wet earth. The fruity tannins are fine and somewhatdelicate, adding a silky texture to a long spicy finish. Supple and fragrant now, it will age for 5 years or perhaps more.
