Markham Merlot 1999
Napa Valley, California, United StatesOpen vanilla, volatile plum jam nose with rich minty cassis tones. Tart leafy cassis fruit flavours in the mouth with a fairly woody finish. It's young so you would expect some dry tannins but the structure is lean and lacks intensity. Not to our taste.Tasted: 01 March 2002Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $38.00 | 750ml |
