I picked this up tonight at my local “Fine Wine & Good Spirits” store…or the state store for those who live in the fine wine control state of Pennsylvania.  For $15, this is a great deal and the oldest Merlot I’ve ever had (8yrs).  After some time in the decanter, this Merlot from the well known Napa vintner held up nicely.  It’s a smooth Merlot with a deep purple hue and a cherry cedar flavor to match.  If you’re in PA – grab a bottle and let me know what you think.
