Wine Details
Price:
$16.00 per bottle
Description:
Our 2003 Estate Merlot is a beautiful deep dark red with a wonderful bouquet of ripe plum and fig with toasty vanilla undertones. The mouthfeel is full and creamy with ripe flavors of plum and black cherry intermingling with cocoa nut and a minerally spiciness. This all combines in an amazingly complex and concentrated wine finishing within a framework of toasty oak and firm acidity. Our best Merlot to date. This is 100% Merlot made from grapes grown on the Midnight Estate Vineyard. Cropped at 1.5 tons per acre in 2001, the resulting wine is a very ripe and extracted style of Merlot. It shows Firmer acidity than most Merlots and is accented by generous American oak tannins that give this wine tremendous ageability for many years. Decant for several hours prior to trying this wine. A great wine to sip and study!
