Boomtown 2011 Merlot (Washington)

Country: US / Washington
Variety: Merlot
Winery: Boomtown /

This Merlot includes 13% Syrah, along with smaller amounts of Petit Verdot and Cabernet. Vanilla and tobacco scents open the door to a sharp, peppery wine, with flavors cloaked in bark and scorched earth. It’s rustic, big and flavorful, with a fat, meaty finish. This is the wine to go with your tri-tip.
