Review:

A true Reininger Merlot, indeed! This juicy, mesmerizing red will leave your mouth watering as you envision freshly cut wildflowers and summer berries frolicking in your head. Just as you awaken from your fantasy and wipe the giddy, spellbound smile off of your face, out leaps the dark chocolate, warm baking spices, and fresh-cut Cuban cigars onto your palate wheeling you into the depths of this rich Merlot. - the winery

2005 Vintage Tasting Notes

This elegant Walla Walla Merlot is extremely concentrated with flavors of chocolate and spice. Velvety, currant, cocoa-espresso flavors reveal lush black currant and plum, while mingling in exotic brown spice. The wine is supple and polished, finishing with an offering of dried cherry gently dipped in chocolate.
