Country: US /
Variety: Merlot New York
Winery: The Grapes of Roth / Long Island
Big and brooding with richly concentrated black plums and velvety, mouthfilling tannins, Roman Roth’s namesake Merlot is boldly structured, but beautifully nuanced as well, with sprays of violet perfume and just a whiff of wet, earthy forest and dried herb notes. Drink now with a good decant, or hold for another 2–3 years.
