Baron Philippe de Rothschild Merlot 2005

FranceSmoky, spicy, barnyard nose with bits of leafy,cherry fruit. The entry is dry and acidic the textures lean. The plate is a mix of spicy earthy leafy fruit with dry tannins. Simple red wine that needs food to cut through its dry, acidic aftertaste.Tasted: 18 January 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
