Geyser Peak Merlot Block Collection Shorenstein Vineyard 1998

Sonoma Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesBig toasted oak nose off the top with vanilla reminds one of the "Parker" Pomerol templates. Sweaty saddle and ripe plummy characters carry the day with firm acidity. The structure is much leaner than the nose would suggest it might be. Simple for the price.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
