    2007 Signature Edition Late Harvest Merlot
  • Rosé of Merlot
    Kestrel Vintners
    (Prosser, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Flint Nelson
  • This Merlot is pink, not being left on its skins long enough to extract any color. There is a sweet floral aspect that is reminiscent of hyacinths, narcissus, or oriental lilies. The flavors are clean and fresh with overtones of strawberry, cranberry, watermelon, pomegranate, red currants, and caramelized sugar. The body is rich and perfectly balanced, with the combination of bright fruit and crisp acidity.

    2003 Merlot View Label
    Yakima River Winery
    (Prosser, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: John W. Rauner
  • Aromas of smoke and raspberry with a depth and concentration one would not believe, make this world class Merlot a great value. On the palate, the density and boldness of the fruit carry past the medium big tannins and rich spicy oak, which helps accent the nutmeg spice of the grape and makes this wine balanced throughout its entire range. Drinkable now, but will age for 4 to 5 years. Open 1 to 2 hours before serving.
