Columbia Crest Merlot-Cabernet 1999
Columbia Valley, Washington, United StatesBig smoky, green bean, green olive, minty, bell pepper nose. Soft, round, dry entry but very smooth and elegant with very light tannins. Smoky vanilla, coffee, bell pepper, green bean flavours. Somewhat light and acidic for the vintage and a bit more herbaceous than say the Two Vineyard merlot but overall balanced and drinkable.Tasted: 13 January 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $17.99 | 750ml | Specialty |
