Kendall-Jackson Merlot Vintner's Reserve 2008

Sonoma County, California, United StatesPeppery, prune, black cherry, black olive, tobacco, dried herb, leather, cedar and coffee aromas. Ripe, round, supple, elegant palate with black cherry, plum, coffee, cedar, chocolate, tobacco, sage, orange and vanilla flavours. Finish has good fruit but some youthful tannin with a slight green edge. Another step in refinement that is very encouraging.Tasted: 10 August 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
