Ledson 1998 Merlot (Sonoma Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Ledson / Sonoma Valley

This is one of the most interesting Merlots of the vintage because it combines fruity ripeness with herbal and vegetal notes to create a complex wine. Blackberry and cassis, a bit of stewed tomato and mushroom, grilled meat, green olives and roasted coffee beans only begin to describe it. Dry and harmonious.
