Tasting- Estrella Merlot


Date of Tasting: Thursday, March 15, 2012
Variety: Merlot (100%)
Region: Napa Valley
Country: United States (California)
Year: 2009
Price: $5.95
Shop Preview: This ruby colored Merlot has raspberry jam aromas with a subtle hint of spice. Layers of vanilla, plum and fig are revealed that linger ever so slightly on the palate. 
My Review: Soft, full bodied. Exceptionally smooth with hints of berries and cassis. Ripe fruit of plum and a touch of vanilla. Nice finish.
With or Without Food: Without Food
