2006 Merlot- Klipsun Vineyard
Wilridge Merlot from Red Mountain is never a wimpy Merlot. It's a Merlot for people who like Cabernet Sauvignon -- powerful and tannic, but also balanced with nice fruit notes. It also ages for years.
2006 Merlot
No "I'll have a Merlot" light weight kind of wine, this one. It's full of blackberry and cherry and is chewy - not to excess, with oak but definitely a wine that will be enjoyed most by folks who like to carry on a dialog with their wine.
