Edna Valley Vineyard
Central Coast Merlot
Central Coast, California, USA
This was nice, but after it sat for a while it got very sweet and metallic. Drink in one sitting (with a friend maybe?)

Medicinal . Too heavy and never opened up . No staying power, once opened use it or lose it . Not a keeper.

A bit like band-aids but may mellow once open.

May 19th, 2014Made from new oak. A lot of vanillin. Creme brûlée smell because it's made from burnt wood (like most new oak battles are but the lighter burn the more vanillin). Tastes furry and beastly. Very tannic.

Not a bad merlot. Good balance, not too dry.
