It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday.

This 7 year old Merlot from Washington State, is still drinking nicely, although starting to decline a bit.

Full bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black and red fruits with tobacco, chocolates, oak, cloves, vanilla, spices, espresso, earth, tobacco leaf and herbs.

Soft tannins on the tangy finish.

Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle.

Fruit forward and tasty. Tangy, spicy and interesting.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$20. — a month ago

The 2021 Riesling Poet's Leap is decidedly green in character, wafting up with notes of lychee, lime zest and crushed green apple. This flows across the palate with grace, displaying a pleasant inner sweetness, as tropical citrus and saline-minerals add a lovely tension throughout. This tapers off with young mango notes accentuated by a salty flourish through the long and crisply refreshing finale. The 2021 is so balanced and refined, just 12.5% alcohol, and at just under one gram of residual sugar per liter. (Eric Guido, Vinous, March 2023) — a month ago

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon wafts up with a pretty bouquet, showing rosy florals, sage and crushed raspberries. It soothes the senses with the silkiest textures as a potent, red fruit wave washes across the palate. An herbal flourish lingers as this finishes peppery and lightly structured. $22.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, March 2023) — 16 days ago

The most Rhone-esque of the line up. Red fruit, white pepper. Tight. Perfect with filet mignons and herb roast potatoes. — 9 days ago

I really enjoyed this wine, unfortunately I paid more than $10 because I bought it at a restaurant. Columbia Valley wines are def in my wheelhouse of taste and enjoyment for vino! 2019 — a month ago
