| 2001 Merriam Vineyards Merlot Windacre Vineyard Russian River, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 91 Alcohol by volume: 14.2% Price at time of purchase: $40.00 (Winery) Type: Merlot Principal varietal(s): Merlot, Cabernet A truly excellent Merlot which, at age 14, is showing magnificently. Beautifully structured - no flabby old age syndrome - yet silky smooth and round in the mouth. Amazing generosity of fruit, almost like a young Zinfandel, but with layers of complex flavors: raspberry, plum, cassis, smoke, cedar. Beautifully balanced and remarkably fresh-tasting. - HK 2015-04-01 [Back] |
