Light purple in color, the 2020 Blackboard Merlot is an extremely approachable and fruit-forward effort. Incorporating 17% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, this shows a jammy mix of black cherry cola, milk chocolate, and sweet tobacco. It is a well-constructed wine, with settled tannins and a short finish. A solid value to be enjoyed over the next five years.
