點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：3175

A nervy young wine, marked by fruity acidity and primary flavors of blackberry and cherry jam, cocoa and spices, wrapped into strong tannins. A bit rude now, but with the balanced integrity to develop over the next 2–4 years.——S.H.(2/1/2010)—— 87

Made in a heavier, full-bodied style, this Merlot is very dry and fairly tannic. It’s an earthy wine, with truffle, tobacco and herb flavors and deeper blue and black fruit. Drink now. ——S.H.(12/1/2006)—— 85

Dry, fruity, tannic and a bit sharp, this Merlot, from a warm, inland appellation in Sonoma County, could improve in a year or two.——S.H.(11/1/2005)—— 84
