Barrister 2005 Merlot (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Merlot Washington
Winery: Barrister / Columbia Valley (WA)

An aromatic, seductive wine, scented with smoke and chocolate, cedar and strawberry. Thick and chewy, with ripe raspberry fruit and a liquorous, barrel-inflected finish. This is a big wine for those who like sheer power, in both fruit and tannins.
