"COMMENTARY: What do we expect from New World Merlot? Soft, supple, and easy are descriptors often associated with this grape variety. The 2016 Ancient Peaks Merlot not only delivers those attributes, it surpasses most other $20 examples of this grape variety in the marketplace. TASTING NOTES: This wine shows lovely fruit that is persistent and delicious. Its ripe red fruits, dried leaves, and sweet oak aromas and flavors should pair it nicely with a grilled ribeye." |
