Medlock Ames Merlot

Medlock Ames Merlot Wine Details
Price: $35.00 per bottle

Description: 2001 offered us nearly ideal growing conditions: a warm spring and cool summer, followed by a dry September. This is what we hope for every year. The cool summer, in particular allow the flavors to develop slowly, without running up the sugar (and alcohol). This wine is a wonderful example of our Old World (rather than California) style, characterized by aromas of tobacco, cedar, chocolate, and leather. These rich aromas are complemented by fruity flavors of cassis and plum. The finish is long and smooth.
