After day 2 Agility Competition in Malvaglia.
Absolut fantastic white wine with the same flavor and structure like the Rose from the same winery.
Also in this white wine you find the grapefruit and pampelmos taste from the start to the finale.
Absolut great wine.

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Deep purple in color with a wide reddish rim.

Beautiful nose of sweet cherries, black plums, blueberries, Indian spices, cedar, licorice, chocolates, herbs, light earth, black pepper, tobacco and light black tea.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with cooked cherries, currants, plums, spices, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco leaf, herbs, peppercorn, earth, dark chocolates and black coffee.

Long finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This delicious 8-year-old Merlot from Napa Valley is drinking beautifully now. Elegant and fruit forward. Soft and complex.

Needs an hour in the decanter to open up properly and show the complexity. Will continue to age nicely in the next few years.

Nicely balanced and spicy with a soft mouthfeel. I had this vintage a few times before, and it is always tasty.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and paired nicely with the Italian beef Prosciutto.

A blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon.

14.4% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

Drying process definitely notable. Nice wine but somewhat muted - lacked some balance to give it more life. — 2 months ago

This is flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from Alta Nova Vinyards in Napa Valley, CA. a masterpiece from a female winemaker, Britt Richards who has the finesse of vinifying wines from myriad California terroirs (mostly mountains). Electrifying aromas of black forrest, leaves, earth and graphite. It makes an opening to the palate with punchy tannins, elevated but not overpowering acidity and silky, very silky tannins. Polyphenols are super-balanced, it can challenge any mountain-like heavy Cab from Napa as a great contender. Loved the elegant finish. Needs to open for over 2 hours to appreciate its potential and savory notes.
