Surprisingly vibrant, almost youthful fruit in this mature Merlot !! Just past peak !! Perfect cork, easily removed after almost two decades in the bottle. Consumed over two days, starting fruit forward but ending a little tired but never flabby. Varietal accuracy in aroma and flavor highlighting plum and blueberry. None remaining in my cellar.

Not overly inspiring. Thin mid-palate flanked with mild blueberry and some earth. Short finish.
