Dry Creek Vineyard 2013 Merlot (Dry Creek Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Dry Creek Vineyard / Dry Creek Valley

This youthful, tannic wine needs time in the glass to unfold, benefiting from the additions of 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. A reductive style shows slightly on the nose before streaks of soy, leather and tobacco provide plenty of savory elements with which to play.
