2006 Merlot - DOUBLE GOLD

DOUBLE GOLD

The 2006 vintage is yet another elegant Merlot within our estate range of wines.  The wine opens with a strong scent of raspberries and vanilla and seemlessly followed by emerging scents of toasty oak, red plums, tobacco and coffee.  And for me, the real joy of this wine is in its' flavor.  Beginning with an impressive array of fruit, this wine's flavor widens through the mid-palette and finish Tannins are firm but have a fine grain, smooth feel.  The balance of aroma, fruit flavor, tannin, and moderate acidity make this a classic food wine.
