96 Points. Platinum Medal. Beverage Testing Institute. Garnet violet black color.  Elegant aromas of dark berries, chocolate toffee, and baking spices with a silky, fruity-yet-dry medium-to-full body and a long, tangy, mocha, apple and mineral nuanced finished with perfected integrated tannins.  A remarkably flavorful and polished merlot that will be great with filet mignon.
