Santa Rita Merlot Reserva 2008

Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileElegant open bay leaf and dry roasted herbs on the nose with a hint of cherries. Almost identical palate with soft warm red fruits and a leafy, sagebrush, tobacco, vanilla finish. Could be an interesting pizza red especially if there's cheese to ameliorate the resin and the dried herbs.Tasted: 20 September 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
