Langtry 2006 Tephra Ridge Vineyard Merlot (Lake County)

Country: US / Tephra Ridge Vineyard
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Langtry / Lake County

Easily the best Merlot in memory from Lake County, this one stands next to anything from Napa Valley, which is just over the hill from the vineyard. Shows a gorgeous tannin structure, with ripe, complex flavors of blackberries, cherries, red currants, mocha, green olives and cedar.
