| Tasting note |
Very deep purple-black colored, the 2015 Merlot Mt. Veeder gives evocative crushed black berry, blueberry and ripe plums with touches of pencil shavings, dried mint and dark chocolate. Full-bodied, firmly textured and with impressive freshness lifting the ripe black fruits, it has a lovely mint and spicy character coming through on the long finish. 370 cases produced. By Robert Parker's Wine Advocate.
The nose is very rich here, offering a wealth of plum paste, vanilla extract, chocolate and coffee beans. The palate's very intense with dense fruit, ripe tannins and a fruit-forward finish. Drink in 2020. By James Suckling. |
