Rabble Merlot 2015
Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo County, Central Coast, California, United StatesMossfire Ranch in Paso Robles is home to this merlot, planted in 1996 on steep hillsides and a rolling valley. Paso is a sun bowl, but the ocean can be an effective deterrent to too much heat via wide daily diurnal shifts of up to 40◦ F. The result is intense black fruit but not overcooked, with pleasant, dusty/chalky tannins and an attractive dry finish. Ten months in 15 percent new French oak polishes up the finish. The label is all millennial, but the wine is more mainstream. Good value.Tasted: 02 November 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| AB | $24.95 | 750ml | private wine stores |
