Alexander Valley Vineyards Merlot 2016 Alexander Valley (United States), 14% abv, $22.00

Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation
Tasting Note:
Bold, spicy aromas of cassis, tobacco, mint, and smoke fill the nose. Ripe and round on the palate, dark berry fruits and resin marry well with soft tannins; earth and plums emerge on the finish.
