Two Gorges Finger Lakes Merlot

Nose is closed but gives up scents of blueberry strudel, stony gravel, violets. Medium bodied, but tightly coiled. A bit shy, but there’s a nice depth to the flavors, which are of dark berry and cassis, with a nice underlying minerality. Good but soft acids, and some very fine grained tannin. This will certainly develop nicely over the next few years.

Nice body. Easy to drink. Enjoyed it with pasta and three meat meatballs and marinara sauce. Delish
