Merlot 2015

The Mercer Malbec looks dark ruby in the glass. The nose offers some beautiful dark fruit - plums, blackberries and currant - and sticks a lovely dose of French oak in there. A nice, savory hint of black olives lurks in the background. The palate is just as enjoyable, with a fruity focus augmented by peppery spice and cinnamon. This is a wine that will be a hit at the holiday table, no doubt. It's a festive, fun red that can hold its own with the standing rib roast. — 7 years ago

Horse Heaven Hills Red Blend 2014

Mmmm, this Red Blend was not listed with Delectable. It's very smooth. A little peppery. Fruity tastes of blackberry and plum. Nice dark purple color. — 7 years ago

They say, and I have found it to be so, that chilled reds mute the flavors and aromas of the wine.

Yea I know you're supposed to drink it room temp but I just like it so much better chilled.

Elephant Seven Wine Company

First and Mercer Monette's Vineyard River Rock Vineyard Grenache Syrah 2014

Greg Ballington
9.2

Inaugural vintage for Joshua West of Elephant Seven Winery. Sourcing from stunning vineyards in the Rocks District. Definitely worth checking out and great value, only $30.00.

Medium to deep garnet core. Very feminine on the nose, but do not take that for being shy. Insanely complex nose that kept changing over time. Started off a little floral with roses and even a little bit of strawberries. Layered undertones of spices, herbs and mixed all together with some cinnamon. Floral notes definitely got stronger on day two. Moderate tannins (6/10), well integrated, excellent structure and medium plus to full bodied. Definitely a touch savory on the attack from 'the Rocks' region, this juice comes from, with meaty notes, wet rocks, and a touch of black pepper. Undertones of black cherries and raspberries. Gained even more complexity on day two with blacker fruits and nutmeg. Slightly dry and lingering finish. Drink till 2024. (92+)

I signed up for their list but have been tardy to order. Which of the two Syrah would you recommend more?

@TheSkip the River Rock has a touch more savory notes, and the Yellow Bird is a big boy. Loved the YB!

Horse Heaven HIlls Malbec 2015

The color is a deeeeep blackish red. On the nose there’s aromas of plums, blackberries, lavender, mint, vanilla, and cocoa. There’s also my beloved burn from ethanol fumes. On the palate it’s medium bodied with a chalky mouthfeel, powdery tannin, and quite a bit of heat from the alcohol. There’s flavors of plums, cranberries, milk chocolate, and creamed coffee. It finishes with cranberries, creamed coffee, astringency from the tannin, and heat from the alcohol. — 6 years ago

Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

This has dark berry and plum fruit, ripe and sweet. Tastes like it was freshly pressed. Acidity is moderate, and tannins and minerality are weak. Lighter in body than its deep color. So this is a juicy and simple wine. — 7 years ago
