2007 Nelms Road Merlot $24.00


80% Merlot
10% Cabernet Sauvignon
4% Syrah
3% Barbera
3% Dolcetto

Alcohol: 14.1%
Production: 2600+ cases 750ml

Wine Enthusiast gave this beauty 89 point, I thinks its worth more like 92 points! The region on the bottle says "Washington State" and for good reason. With over six different vineyards pushed into this bottle, it is a miracle they came out with such a beautiful blend. This is the reason why they do what they do!

A massive amount of berry fruit like, strawberry starburst and cherry snow cone flavor, this is a great little juice factory. Smooth tannins and great acidity, this is one for the Friday night meatloaf or a nice big pasta with a good red sauce. I love this wine!
