Château La Joya 2000 Estate Bottled Reserve Merlot (Colchagua Valley)

Country: Chile / Colchagua Valley
Variety: Merlot
Winery: Château La Joya / Estate Bottled Reserve

This is a great house pour for fans of Chilean Merlot with its consistent fruit, soft acidity and low tannins. On the nose and palate, a core of sweet, Red Delicious apple is accented by dry leather, toasty vanilla and dried herbs. Simple, but well crafted.
