R. H. Phillips Merlot 2000

Dunnigan Hills, Yolo County, California, United StatesThe Phillips merlot with its 11 per cent petite sirah and two per cent each of malbec and petit verdot has a spicy minty nose with enticing cherry vanilla aromas in the background. The entry is light and smooth with earthy pepper prune flavours in the finish. A straight-ahead everyday red that is more than ready to drink.Tasted: 14 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
